Among all gemstones, various qualities have been attributed to the deep blue sapphire in particular over the centuries. In Gem Lore, the language of gemstones, it was associated with truth and loving loyalty. For example, the painter Sir Edward Burne-Jones, who also designed jewellery, wrote to his close friend Frances Graham: "Sapphire is truth, and I am never without it [...] Sapphires I make my totem of!" The sapphire, often in combination with diamonds, has become a classic gemstone setting for engagement rings. This large entourage ring also features a dark blue sapphire and white diamonds. The natural, dark blue sapphire, which appears almost black, catches the eye with its 5.90 carat weight. The sparkle of the eighteen small diamonds surrounding it provides the necessary attention. The white gold ring is pleasantly flat so that it can be worn every day without any problems. We date the ring, which came to us from Hamburg, to around 1960 due to its design language. It comes with a newly created certificate from Vienna.
