Sapphires do not only come in blue! Like rubies, sapphires belong to the corundum group. As all colored corundum, with the exception of red ruby, is called sapphire in mineralogy, yellow, green and orange sapphires are also found alongside the blue varieties. The pink-orange variety of sapphire is particularly popular: these stones usually come from Sri Lanka or Madagascar and are known as padparadscha. The name is derived from the Sinhalese term for lotus flower and refers to stones that resemble these flowers in color. It can be described as a mixture of orange and pink and is compared to the warm glow of a sunset. A wonderful padparadscha sapphire in a very delicate color is the highlight of this ring. The stone, weighing 1.34 ct, is set in a wonderful pink pastel shade. We had the stone set in an antique ring from the last years of the 19th century, which came to us with a damaged center stone. Here it is now accompanied by an entourage of nine old-cut diamonds weighing a good one carat in total. We discovered the ring in Württemberg and had a detailed appraisal prepared for it, which is included with the purchase.
