The Sapphire Merchant presents our extraordinary 3.65ct Paraiba Tourmaline Ring with 174 D Colour VVS Diamonds (a total diamond carat weight of 0.98ct) set in 18k White Gold. Designed by The Sapphire Merchant, this ring showcases the Paraiba tourmaline in a diamond-encrusted basket.

We secured this Paraiba Tourmaline on a 2024 gem-buying trip in Thailand. When it came across our desk, its crystal clarity and serene blue hue captivated us. Nature only made one of these; a true jewel, extremely rare, coveted, and highly luxurious. You will not find another gemstone and ring like this. 

This ring has been lovingly created in a US Ring Size 7, or New Zealand Ring Size N.  Resizing included.

We are delighted to announce the first ring in the T.S.M Exclusive Collection: our 5.19ct Ceylon Cornflower Blue Sapphire Ring with 142 D-Color VVS Diamonds set in 18k Yellow Gold. Designed by The Sapphire Merchant, this ring showcases the sapphire in a diamond-encrusted weaved basket with an unusual eight-pronged lotus-inspired setting. 

We secured this sapphire on a 2024 gem-buying trip in Thailand. When this sapphire came across our desk, we were enamoured with its iconic cornflower blue colour and exceptional clarity. To discover a Ceylon blue sapphire in a round brilliant cut in this generous carat weight is improbable; sapphires of this calibre are rarely seen on the market. 

This ring has been lovingly created in a US Ring Size 7, or New Zealand Ring Size N.  Resizing included.

The Sapphire Merchant presents our extraordinary 3.02ct Tsavorite Garnet Ring with 204 D Colour VVS Diamonds set in 18k White Gold. Designed by The Sapphire Merchant, this ring showcases the Tsavorite Garnet with a glittering halo constructed of pear shaped diamonds.

Tsavorite is a rare green garnet found in the Merelani Hills of Tanzania and nearby in the Tsavo National Park of Kenya, hence its namesake. It is prized for its exquisite vivid green, which rivals a verdant green emerald. Its high refractive index gives it a fiery dispersion, a sparkle considered one of the best in the precious gemstone family. 

This ring has been lovingly created in a US Ring Size 7, or New Zealand Ring Size N.  Resizing included.

What our customers say

When we got engaged choosing our forever masterpiece was very important to us. Gemma’s wealth of knowledge on Sapphires impressed us and we were confident in choosing The Sapphire Merchant to help us with our ring. When we received our ring we were absolutely mind blown on the quality and we are over the moon with the finished result.

When I found a Tsavorite on The Sapphire Merchant website I was very interested but nervous. I researched the gem thoroughly and everything matched what the Sapphire Merchant website said so I contacted Gemma to start a conversation. She answered my questions fully, including things I hadn’t thought to ask. Once I decided on a stone, we worked on ring designs together. I have now received my beautiful Tsavorite ring. It has been a pleasure working with Gemma throughout the process. I highly recommend her business to anyone.

Gemma was extremely helpful in assisting me on my search for the perfect centre piece for an engagement ring. She is very knowledgeable and made the process fun and stress free. The final result wouldn’t be what it is without her input. My now fiancé absolutely loves her ring and the stunning Padparadscha Sapphire from Madagascar blew her away.

I had a look at the Sapphire Merchant website with a dream, thinking I’ll never be able to afford one... but I was super surprised! I found my dream Sapphire and it was affordable! Gemma was a dream to deal with and really knows her stuff. It’s also great to know that all her gems are sourced ethically.

Just recently I purchased my stunning Padparadscha Sapphire. Such an incredible selection of shapes and colours to choose from. Gemma was so helpful in assisting me with my Sapphire purchase, selecting the right one for me. Her knowledge is extensive which made the process easy and enjoyable. Who needs Diamonds when you can have Sapphires.
