Unheated Purple Sapphire Earrings

Purple sapphires are a beauty in their own right.

In the local jewellery scene, both online and in real life, we don’t see purple sapphires featured often enough. But it is a beautiful colour to wear. The jewellery piece should be designed and styled to fit the owner and the of course, the gemstone.

Design Brief:

Our client came through with a request for green and purple with wholly natural, unheated gemstones, but “I don’t want it to look too loud”. It was a design task that needed some planning.

Set in a classic style, with a combination of colours that are not only bold but in fact, complement each other. A lot of thought has gone into the design of this pair of earrings, to create that effortlessly simple yet classy look.

Design Outcome:

Featured in this pair of earrings is a pair of unheated purple sapphire, with green tsavorites and diamonds.

Against a backdrop of glistening diamonds, the rich hues of the tsavorite with the cool purples of the sapphires make for a pretty pair. Bold, yet so easily wearable.

Notes about Purple Sapphires:

Until we actually set our minds to sourcing for a pair of unheated purple sapphires, one would never know the difficulty in finding such a pair. Firstly, as most would know, Sapphires are more often seen in blue, red, pink or yellow. Purple sapphires are in fact, not as common. In addition, sourcing for an unheated, matching pair required a fair bit of time and luck.

Unheated purple sapphires are a beauty in their own right because a vast majority of purple sapphires available in the jewellery market is heated. Heating is done to improve colour saturation of a gemstone. That being said, purple is a saturated hue that is not easy to come by. So, you can imagine the delight in stumbling upon this pair of unheated purple sapphires.

Mysterious Green Sapphire Proposal Ring

They came to us looking for a bespoke yet uniquely designed engagement ring. The main request was that the gem had to be an unheated sapphire. Not only does the centre gem have to be one-of-kind, the design must not only be special, yet classy.

The customisation process for this endearing green sapphire ring

It was truly a pleasure to work on this piece. Unheat green sapphires that are finely faceted, loupe clean, with such a beautiful intense hue are rare. 

A bespoke engagement ring fitting for the lady of the hour. At Heritage Gems, our art pieces go through a period of idea brainstorming and discussions, working not only with our jewellery artisans but together with whom the piece is intended for. Every small detail of jewellery, not left out of consideration and design discussion. It is an enjoyable process, both for us as jewellers, our clients and also our jewellery artisans. 

Featured below is an assymetrically-designed unheated green sapphire engagement ring. The bride-to-be was searching for that special stone, set in a design that was uniquely her. She said she was keen on a sapphire, but not in the usual colours. She did not know during the initial stages of the gemstone / design consultation that she wanted a green sapphire. She was however, open to trying on several colours. After trying on several shades and colours, she found herself more drawn to our unique shade of green in this particular Sapphire. It was not long before her heart was set on this piece. 

When it came to ring setting, she knew she did not want the usual halo design ring. “Surprise me!”, she said. And I’m pretty sure we did. 

What design options did we suggest? – Design consultation needs

Design brainstorming ideas were tossed and Mr B. said he was quite sure Ms S. would want something that was somewhat unconventional, yet aesthetically pretty and definitely a design that was timeless. They did not want a design that was unique, overly bold / trendy , but would soon quickly become dated. 

And so it was decided that an asymmetrical design was the best and most timeless way to spruce up a symmetrically-shaped gemstone. The final product was a a dreamy, mysterious green sapphire engagement ring.

At Heritage Gems, our customisation process of engagement rings and significant occasion jewellery is never taken lightly.

Round Sapphire Engagement Ring Singapore

Read client’s review below at the end of this post for their experience on making a bespoke piece of jewellery with Heritage Gems Singapore!

Coloured gemstones provide such delight to its owner. Because colour is so subjective to each individual, there is no such thing as a colour that is unattractive.

Blue sapphires in a midnight royal blue are as mesmerising as they are mysterious. As with all coloured gemstone jewellery, pick a colour that speaks to you.

Featured below is a heated round blue sapphire ring that is elegant, simple and easy to match with any outfit! Being an engagement ring, this piece has been designed for daily-wear with fuss-free embedded side diamonds. Diamonds are there to add to that spark of the ring but not detract attention away from the beauty of the Sapphire. Such is the beauty of customised pieces.

Set in 18K White Gold.
