The stone is the happiest, brightest, sparkliest natural yellow sapphire we have ever had the privilege of setting. This utterly magnificent stone came to us in a parcel from a collector. The parcel of 34 stones had been lovingly hand fossicked all over Australia and lovingly cut. Not surprisingly this was the hero stone - and even in the case it was impossible not to be magnetised by its colour. Zesty lemon it literally dances in yellow sparkles even on a cloudy day - a truly sunny stone. Check out the videos of her on instagram.

Described on the report as vivid greenish yellow we have tried to capture the brightness and the way that the two edges of lime green play into the stone. 

When looking for the perfect setting for this ring we knew we wanted multiclaw, higher carat and chunky. This vintage ring had an 8mm CZ - a vintage classic from when CZ was a good lookalike for a diamond and when gold was cheap enough to use on stones like CZ. The 6 claw 14ct white gold setting is precise and elegant and sits atop the yellow gold shank. This means that it could be stacked. The 14ct yellow gold band is fabulous and rich and we are thrilled with the way it sings with that zesty lemon stone. 

This ring comes with an independent valuation for $12,550 AU from 2026

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.
