B08HSV9Q4V Large Oval Created Blue Star Sapphire Ring Symmetrical Flower Vintage Silver N-S

Fascinating Brilliance! This stone is reminiscent of the vintage “Lindy” synthetic Star Sapphire of the 50s thru 70s. Unlike the “Lindy” which resembles a “painted” on star, lab-grown Star Sapphires present a distinctive six ray star, easily visible under any light source. The star effect, known as an “asterism”, is more defined in a lab-grown Sapphire. They are identical in chemical composition, brilliance, and physical appearance as their natural counterpart, however they have fewer flaws, are not mined from the ground, and are much less expensive. They are an extremely durable stone with a Mohs scale hardness or 9 (a Diamond is 10).This ring features an 10mm x 8mm bezel mounted lab created Star Sapphire N-S mounted on a 2.9mm wide 925 Sterling Silver Symmetrical Flower pattern band. Oxidized to a Vintage Silver Finish. Shipped in gift box.Please note that the star effect or “asterism” of a Star Sapphire, is not a fixed element. It is the result of direct light, artificial or natural. The brighter the light source, the brighter the star display. In low light or shaded settings the star will be less visible. All photos are taken with direct light.Click on my logo to the right to learn more about my shop and to view all my offerings.
