Buying a loose gemstone gives you independence, you get the freedom to make your own choice, your own jewelry design.
A natural 1.06 carat white sapphire in a radiant cut, colorless and untreated. White (colorless) sapphire is corundum without the trace elements that produce color — the same mineral as blue or yellow sapphire, but entirely without chromophores. At Mohs 9, it is substantially harder than any other colorless gemstone alternative to diamond. The radiant cut combines the architectural outline of a rectangular shape with brilliant faceting, producing strong light return in the colorless material.
Why Choose this 1.06 ct Radiant White Sapphire?
White sapphire's case for engagement ring use is straightforward: it is the hardest colorless gemstone available other than diamond, it is untreated (no coating, no filling, no enhancement), and it requires no special care protocols. The radiant cut at just over 1 carat produces a stone with good face-up surface area and a modern silhouette that suits contemporary settings. Untreated colorless sapphire is more common than untreated colored sapphire, but this stone's clarity and colorlessness are still hand-selected.
