    2.53ct Kashmir Sapphire and Old Mine Diamond Three Stone Ring

    A stunning sapphire and diamond ring by Hancocks, set to the centre with a beautiful cushion shaped sapphire weighing 2.53cts, unheated and of the coveted Kashmir origin, corner claw set in 18ct yellow gold between shoulders of old mine brilliant cut diamonds, one weighing 1.08ct and the other 1.03ct and both of F colour and VS1 clarity claw set in platinum, all to a finely crafted handmade gold mount with diamond set shoulders in millegrain channel setting. The ring comes with an additional diamond ring jacket that can be fitted over it to create a showier piece, it is set with a surround of additional old cut diamonds and the three stone ring sits perfectly flush into it so that when worn it looks like one ring. Kashmir sapphires are a truly exceptional colour, a rich, deep velvety blue that often seems to be lit from within. Importantly they also maintain this colour whatever lighting conditions they are viewed in, a fact which separates them from most other sapphires. Their intense beauty, coupled with their rarity and the fact that only a handful of new stones appear on the market each year, means these wonderful gems are hugely desirable and command some of the highest prices for coloured gemstones in the world. This stone is a really lovely example and perfectly demonstrates that desirable tone, hue and saturation of blue that makes these gems so sought after.

    Directors Notes

    Kashmir sapphires are a truly exceptional colour, a rich, deep velvety blue that often seems to be lit from within. Importantly they also maintain this colour whatever lighting conditions they are viewed in, a fact which separates them from most other sapphires. Their intense beauty, coupled with their rarity and the fact that only a handful of new stones appear on the market each year, means these wonderful gems are hugely desirable and command some of the highest prices for coloured gemstones in the world.  They were discovered in 1881 after a landslide in the Himalayan Mountains of Kashmir revealed the beautiful crystals embedded in the soft, clay-rich earth. They were mined extensively over the next few years, under the control of the Maharaja, during which time many fine and large sapphires were discovered.  However by the end of 1888 operations had ceased and since then, despite various attempts, very little of importance has been recovered.
