Are parti sapphires popular as an engagement ring centre stone?

Parti sapphires, as well as teal sapphires, have been steadily gaining popularity among couples looking for a unique alternative to the more traditional diamonds. Their one-of-a-kind beauty, ethical sourcing, and affordability make them an attractive choice for contemporary engagement rings. Artisanal jewellers are embracing these multi-coloured gems, offering innovative designs and custom settings to showcase their beauty.

Where do Australian parti sapphires come from?

Australian parti sapphires are among the most sought-after, known for their ethical sourcing and outstanding quality. Primarily mined in Queensland and New South Wales, these distinctive gemstones are treasured for their gorgeous, vivid colour combinations. Queensland sapphires tend to display bright, vibrant greens and yellows, while sapphires from New South Wales tend to have rich blue-teal colours, with distinct yellow zones. Choosing an Australian parti sapphire engagement ring means embracing individuality while owning a piece of the country’s rich natural heritage.

Is it possible to customise a teal sapphire engagement ring?

A bespoke teal sapphire engagement ring allows you to create something truly special. From selecting the perfect stone and ring design, to choosing the metal - whether white, yellow or rose gold, or platinum, incorporating diamonds or other gems, to adding an engraving or a special design detail - customisation ensures the final ring reflects your partner’s personality and style. At Lizunova, our step-by-step bespoke jewellery design service brings your vision to life.

Are teal sapphires rare and valuable?

Teal sapphires are rarer than traditional blue sapphires and are ethically mined in Australia, Madagascar and Montana. Their uniqueness, scarcity and growing popularity make them a sought-after choice in significant jewellery, such as engagement rings. Their value is influenced by factors such as their overall beauty, colour saturation, clarity, cut and carat weight. Stones sourced from specific regions, like Montana in the USA and certain parts of Australia, are particularly prized for their unique colour qualities. Their rarity and distinctive beauty make them desirable and sought-after, adding to their allure and value. Despite their rarity, they offer an affordable alternative to the more traditional diamond rings.

What do I need to consider when choosing a teal sapphire engagement ring?

When selecting the perfect teal sapphire and ring design, consider the following factors:

Cut & Shape: A well-cut sapphire will refract light beautifully, enhancing its overall brilliance. A perennial favourite is the classic round or oval teal sapphire engagement ring. Pear teal sapphire engagement ring is another popular choice, followed by the emerald cut with its clean, Art Deco lines, and the cushion cut, faceted in the classic brilliant or modified cut. Round, oval, cushion, radiant and pear shape sapphires have more brilliance than emerald step cut stones, due to the higher number of facets refracting the light. Rare, artisanal shapes such as kite, barion, hexagon, freeform, shield and trilliant cuts further open the scope for creative expression and ensuring your ring is truly unique.

Colour: Some teal sapphires lean toward a cooler blue-teal, while others have a more pronounced green undertone. The colour saturation can also vary from light and translucent to deeper shades. Choose a hue that speaks to you.

Clarity: While inclusions in natural gems are normal, opt for stones with minimal visible imperfections to enhance brilliance. At Lizunova, we take care of this aspect for you by handpicking sapphires that are free from both visible imperfections such as inclusions, and hidden imperfections such as fissures.

Ethical Sourcing: Ensure your sapphire comes from a responsible source. At Lizunova, we prioritise ethical sourcing of sapphires from small scale, local producers.

Customisation: A bespoke ring design allows you the freedom to create a piece that reflects your partner’s individuality and lifestyle, and can include meaningful details, such as a hidden birthstone, a special design detail or an engraving.

What metal pairs best with a teal sapphire engagement ring?

Teal sapphires pair beautifully with all metals. White gold and platinum highlight the sapphire’s cool tones, while warm colour of yellow gold brings out the green hues, and feminine rose gold enhances bluish colour.

Which metal pairs best with an engagement ring with a green sapphire?

It depends on the look you’re after. Green sapphires have a natural versatility that works beautifully with different metal tones. Platinum and white gold offer a crisp, modern contrast, making the green appear even more vibrant. Yellow gold brings warmth, enhancing the earthy, golden undertones found in certain green sapphires. Rose gold can add a softer, feminine feel, and highlight cooler tones.

Ultimately, it’s about what feels right for you — whether that’s a striking contrast or a setting that enhances the stone’s natural depth.
