Ethically Sourced ~ Mermaid Sapphire
The most popular color sapphire requested by our customers is blue-green teal. It ranges in saturation from light to dark, and the stone in this ring would be the darker more saturated teal blue with blue-green flashes. Set in a 100% post-consumer recycled 14k yellow gold 4-prong setting is a natural, untreated 1.60ct oval in a modern modified oval brilliant cut. It measures 8.2x6mm.
Like many sapphires, the color will change a bit depending on the amount of light and the source of light available.
If there's one thing better than a beautiful teal sapphire, it's knowing that it came from a supply chain that cares for the people who bring these stones up to the earth's surface. The Nigerian sapphires we purchase were mined by artisan miners, members of the local community who farm in the growing season and mine sapphires in the off-season. The purchase of these stones benefits the communities, helping people provide for their families and providing more funding for education and healthcare.
The band on this solitaire is carved and textured by hand in wax inour Evergreen style. The band is fully rounded, about 1.9mm wide and allows for stacking with similarly sized wedding and anniversary bands.

Making a Difference:
Help fight climate change with this purchase! Trees are like the lungs of the planet...our "natural air purifiers." They breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen. Additionally, they provide habitat for birds and other wildlife and play a vital role in our natural water cycle. Forests help regulate the water in the air through a process called transpiration. They absorb thousands of gallons of water into their roots. Excess water is then released through the leaves back into the air. For every purchase made, I donate one planted tree through Plant-It 2020. Small changes by individuals can make a difference in the fight against climate change.
