I'm so happy to share this fun four-stone, violet-blue sapphire ring with you guys!

It was a Christmas gift to me from my parents over 15 years ago - I loved it then and still do now, but over the years, it took some wear with one of the diamonds having fallen out of the shank, and its white gold setting was in need of a good polish and re-plating. I just picked it up yesterday from my jeweler who has breathed new life into the ring, literally - good as new! I don't have the stats on the stones, but they look eye-clean to me, and I can see the violetish hue depending on the lighting. Though it is a darker blue in tone, it holds it color really very well and flashes some nice color. And, I really adore the way all four stones were put together with diamond detailing that makes their color pop :-)

Enjoy the pics!

Few more pics showing the contrast between shade & sun - the color shifts a bit but in a way that I really like

What a sweet gift! I love seeing creative ways to set smaller colored stones. Glad you were able to fix it so you can wear it :)
 
Beautiful ring - and I really love the design - the diamonds and sapphires play very well together! Enjoy!
 
That is so beautiful!
 
What a cool design. I have never seen anything like that!
 
Beautiful - love the unique design. Congrats!
 
What a pretty ring, and such original design! Love its violet outfit too.

Innerkitten & Marymm - thank you so much! I completely agree with you about the small stones - individually, I don't think I would have looked at any one of them twice, but put together in this way, and I really like them. I've seen other rings that just simply put together four stones into a square in an invisible or tension setting, but I feel like that concept screams - I wanted a big stone! Whereas, I like the ring on the whole and feel like the diamond cross makes the ring :-)

Moosemunch, Gemandjewelrylover, & Laurie - Thank you guys! I've never seen anything similar either - I wish I knew who made the ring, so I could tell you guys, and so I could check out other stuff made by the same - it's rare that I like halo-ish detailing or mêlée (for myself), but this is understated enough for even me to wear ;-)

Laurie - I wish I had done a better job catching the violet, but I'm glad you can see it - I'm very pleasantly surprised when the ring makes that slight shift - for me at least, I like the depth that a touch of violet adds to a straight blue :-)
