14 cts. of striking beauty
Under no circumstances will I ever tire of a good sapphire, and whoa, baby do I have a good sapphire for you today. Fourteen carats of deep, velvety blue, posing in the most dramatically perfect setting that results in what I can refer to only as gothic chic. Bayco‘s blackened gold ring is puncuated with pointed, spear-like prongs adorned in smaller round sapphires, gripping all four sides of the emerald-cut center stone. Underneath, round diamonds glitter in a contrasting, sparkling show. The ring’s delicate band—the most suitable choice to support this top-heavy (in a good way!) design, in my opinion—is also lined in sapphires, so not a portion of its surface goes untouched. Sometimes less is more, and I think Bayco strikes the perfect balance here, with just the right amount of detailing. As if any amount of detail could take your eyes away from that center stone, anyway.
