Jewelry M.S. Rau | Star Sapphire Cabochon Ring, 12.39 Carats

An Incredible 12.39-Carat Star Sapphire Showcases A Luminous Cornflower Blue Hue In This Striking Ring. The Fabulous Cabochon Jewel Is Set In Wonderfully Engraved Platinum And 18K Yellow Gold Setting Featuring A Laurel Motif And Pierced Elements Along The Shank. The Star Sapphire’S Trademark Six-Pointed Star Is The Result Of A Phenomenon Called Asterism. This Occurs When Tiny Needle-Like Titanium Dioxide, Or Rutile, Fibers Form Within The Sapphire, Creating What Appears To Be The Rays Of A Star When Viewed Under A Single, Concentrated Light Source.

Circa 1970S
