This piece centres on a teal sapphire of exceptional saturation, sourced from the Central Queensland region of Australia. The stone is a product of the unique geological conditions along the Tropic of Capricorn, exhibiting a distinctive dichroic shift between deep verdant green and aquatic blue tones—a characteristic highly prized in contemporary lapidary.

The sapphire is held in a bi-metal setting of 18-carat yellow and white gold, a combination designed to accentuate the stone’s complex internal palette. The central gem is flanked by natural brilliant-cut diamonds, which provide a sharp, luminous contrast to the deep tones of the sapphire. To ensure complete transparency of provenance, the stone was acquired through Capricorn Gems, an organisation dedicated to the ethical extraction and full traceability of Queensland’s mineral resources. The resulting design is a study in responsible craftsmanship, balancing a modern mixed-metal aesthetic with a commitment to the documented history of the materials.
