A truly lovely Ceylon sapphire solitaire ring. The sapphire in the centre - certified as natural and unheated, and originating from Ceylon (Sri Lanka) - displays a slight colour change: a rich, regal purple in incandescent light to a deep but bright blue in sunlight. The stone is secured in a six claw coronet collet which sits low to the finger, leading to a slender, fluted shank.
