This beautiful hand made ring is set with the most incredible 3.80ct true Cornflower Blue, Sri Lankan, no heat Sapphire. Partnered with a pair of 4.5mm round diamonds, weighing 0.72cts. 

The sapphire has a small inclusion inside the stone that is just visible. 

What is 'No Heat' - A sapphire is commonly heated to help improve colour (this is no bad thing and totally accepted in the trade). A 'no heat' stone is left untreated, meaning it has come out of the ground with its intense colour. Approximately only 0.5 - 1% of the sapphires discovered are of gem quality without treatment. Natural untreated sapphires are far more uncommon and therefore valuable than treated and chemically altered stones.
