New Purple Engagement Rings

 

I think that purple is such a beautiful colour, and one of my favourites, so of course I was very pleased to learn that we had some new deep purple engagement rings joining our hand made ready to wear collection.

This platinum and colour change purple sapphire engagement ring is so striking and really stands out in our Halls Green 'dramatic' cabinet! This design is certainly a one of a kind, and would suit a lady who enjoys bold colours and designs, along with a little extra sparkle! The gorgeous deep colour of the purple sapphire complements the white metal and the white diamonds perfectly, and the lady who owns it will no doubt be the envy of many others!

The slim polished band measures 2.5mm at the back and has shoulders that split as they reach the sapphire, to accentuate the central stone, and it's lovely pear shape. The stone itself is a bluey-violet Tanzanian sapphire that changes colour in different lights. It is 8x6mm in size and weighs 1.09cts, with eight pave set side H SI diamonds (two 1mm, two 1.2mm and two 1.5mm) totaling 0.09ct and these diamond create an antique look and add extra sparkle.

Platinum is one of the most expensive and hard wearing of the precious metals and a lovely contemporary steely-white colour. Platinum does not tarnish and its purity means that it will not cause an allergic reaction when in contact with the skin, even for people with the most sensitive of skins.

Sapphires are the birthstone for September and it is said that they protect the wearer from all sorts of evil, illness, stress and general harm and as such, makes a wonderful choice for an engagement ring!

We also have some more beautiful purple engagement rings in our collection. We have a stunning cushion cut purple sapphire and diamond palladium ring, a sterling silver and 0.74ct oval facetted amethyst engagement ring and a 9ct white gold and brilliant cut rich velvety purple amethyst in a classic four claw setting.
