Blue Hour

Ceylon Sapphire Ring · 18K Yellow Gold & White Gold

A large emerald-cut Ceylon sapphire — cornflower blue, with the silky clarity that separates Sri Lankan stones from all others — held in an ornate yellow gold crown. The four corner prongs are sculptural: each one a doubled, ridged claw that grips the stone with the authority of something Art Deco-informed but entirely of today. Yellow gold bars run along each long edge of the stone, framing it like a window.

On either flank, stepped formations of baguette and round brilliant diamonds in yellow gold settings build outward from the stone in two tiers — structured, architectural, refusing to be called merely decorative. The entire head sits on a clean white gold band, polished to mirror finish, which grounds the warmth of the yellow gold crown with cool precision.

On the Stone
"Ceylon sapphires have a particular quality of blue — not the dark inky intensity of Burma, not the electric teal of Madagascar. This is the blue of clear sky an hour before dusk. The yellow gold was chosen to resist it, not match it."
