Aspen Twig Sapphire Solitaire
An organic aspen twig, sustainably harvested from the north shore of Lake Superior, cast into recycled 14 karat gold, and adorned with a spectacular sapphire. This whimsical, earthy design celebrates the symbolism of the aspen tree. What better tree to represent the love and commitment between two souls than the aspen, a tree that not only withstands disturbances, but has evolved to benefit from them. One of the oldest and largest organisms in the world is a clonal aspen stand in Colorado.
Shown here with a natural and untreated, sky blue Montana sapphire, ethically mined using earth friendly practices from the Eldorado Bar of the Missouri River in Montana. This stone measures approx. 6mm and weighs in at about 1 carat. This exact ring has sold and your stone will be custom sourced just for you. We can source a similar sapphire or find one in a different hue.
I work with known origin, ethical sapphires from ethical mines all across the globe, including in Australia, Montana, Madagascar, and Sri Lanka. Sapphires occur naturally in a rainbow of different colours, and can be sourced in all shapes and sizes. The price listed here is for a centre stone up to 1 carat in size; larger stones may incur additional charges. Have another stone in mind? I would love to discuss your ideas with you!
