Features of the Classic Princess Diana Blue Sapphire Engagement Ring
It’s the rule. The world follows the daring trendsetters who have displayed a penchant for all that is different and unique. Princess Diana was an icon and her choices definitely set the tone for fashionistas around the world.
It started when she chose a blue sapphire engagement ring! Royalty settling for just a £30,000 ring in 1980s was scoffed at. She could have pointed a finger at the choicest of jewels!
However, this is the ring that came to stir up an unprecedented demand worldwide for a design that has come to be known as the Princess Diana ring design. Her ring that now sits on the finger of Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, (after prince William proposed marriage to her with this ring) features a large oval cut blue sapphire that is around 12 carats in weight (there is also conflict in views about this gem being 18 carats of weight!), surrounded by a halo of 14 flawless diamonds. The ring is in 18-karat white gold.
Women of taste still raise a toast to the classic beauty and choice of Princess Di, by customizing their rings to this particular design.
