Big, bold and blue. We are always amazed at how vibrant lab grown sapphires can be - the most royal and bright of blues. And in a stone of this size it is really alluring and on a simple chain it really catches the eye.
This pendant is a classic example of how illusion settings work in jewellery. You would totally be forgiven for thinking that this pendant has a halo of diamonds around it. In fact, it has two diamonds (top and bottom) for the sparkle - and the rest are raised claws in rhodium plating - that really do a fantastic job of convincing the eye that they are there.

FAQ
Sizing
What do we mean when we say a ring is "sizeable"? Well, most standard rings can be made bigger or smaller by up to three letter sizes. If we say the item is "moderately sizeable", this usually means about 1 size, and if we say it is "not sizeable" or that "sizing is not recommended" it will be due to the construction - it could be age related, pattern related, have enamel etc.
We can happily help with sizing of rings, so please do get it touch if we can give you a quote.
Current prices are: $40 for sizing down, $40 for rhodium plating (all white gold rings), and sizing up starts at $50 - and depends on the carat of gold, width of band and number of sizes. These are subject to change at any time and remain linked to the volatile changes in precious metals.
Time frames - sizing is usually complete within 3 weeks.
