This Horizon ring from British jeweler David Morris’s 2024 “Skye” High Jewelry collection draws inspiration from the pink aurora. It centers around an approximately 35-carat oval padparadscha sapphire, with a rose gold band set with pink diamonds to complement the stone’s magnificent orange-pink hue.

Center stage is undeniably the exceptionally rare 34.88-carat padparadscha sapphire. This gemstone possesses a perfect balance of pink and orange tones, excellent oval-cut proportions, and outstanding clarity, making it extraordinarily rare in both quality and size. Padparadscha is one of the most coveted varieties of sapphire, its unique orange-pink coloration caused by traces of chromium (Cr) and iron (Fe). The band is crafted from warm-toned rose gold. The pavé-set round pink diamonds, with a total weight of 2.52 carats, serve as a stunning accent, their pink fire harmonizing with the primary stone’s glow. The band is also set with baguette-cut colorless diamonds forming angular V-shaped geometric patterns, their dazzling interplay of light interpreting the ever-changing spectacle of the aurora.
