CUSTOM SAPPHIRE ENGAGEMENT RINGS

Sapphires are for lovers who want more than ordinary. Our custom sapphire engagement rings celebrate color, strength and story, and wrap it around your finger.

Forget what you think you know about the “rules” for engagement rings. Sapphires were the stone of choice long before diamonds ever showed up to the party. A handmade sapphire engagement ring says, “I love you, but I’m doing it my way”.

Every sapphire in our collection is real, traceable and responsibly sourced from trusted partners in Sri Lanka, Madagascar, Montana, Australia, Thailand, Indonesia and beyond. You can choose your stone from our vault or request us to source a gemstone that matches your wildest wish for your ethical sapphire engagement ring.

Go classic with a blue sapphire and diamond ring, bright and playful with a pink or teal sapphire, or dramatic with a unique purple sapphire engagement ring. If you can dream it, we can find it (and yes, we’ve seen some wild requests).

SAPPHIRE ENGAGEMENT RINGS

Sapphire engagement rings carry centuries of meaning: royalty, devotion, wisdom. Sapphires are tough (a 9 on the Mohs scale), so your ring is made to handle real life. 

SAPPHIRE COLORS

Unlike diamonds, sapphires come in nearly every color of the rainbow. We offer custom sapphire engagement rings in blue, green, pink, yellow, purple, white and even the moody in-between colors, bicolor and tricolor sapphires that you won’t find on any old jewelry shelf. We carry Montana sapphires, Ceylon sapphires, Australian parti sapphires and more. Each stone has its own energy, making unique sapphire engagement rings for women (and men) who want something true to them.

You can go big (hello, 2 carat sapphire engagement ring) or keep it simple and sweet. Explore sapphire engagement rings by color. From the timeless blue sapphire engagement ring to a nature inspired green sapphire engagement ring or the rare bicolor sapphire engagement ring that's bound to have people asking about that center stone. Whether you’re into sapphire wedding ring sets, oval sapphire rings, or something no one else has ever seen, this is your playground.

Explore our custom sapphire engagement rings by color to find one that speaks to you.

SAPPHIRE SHAPES & CUTS

Our ethically sourced sapphires come in a wide range of shapes and cuts, each bringing out something different in the stone. You’ll find classic shapes like oval, round and pear, along with more unexpected ones like kite, marquise, cushion, hexagon and octagon shaped sapphires. 

We carry traditional brilliant cut, geo cut, portrait cut and rose cut sapphires for your custom sapphire ring in gold. Some sapphires are precision cut for symmetry and sparkle, while others are cut by hand to follow the natural shape of the rough. 

Sapphire Diamond Rings 

For those who want a little extra, add diamonds: pavé, clusters or a single sparkling accent. A sapphire and diamond ring makes a beautiful blend of tradition and surprise, and makes a great anniversary or promise ring too.

Looking for sapphire engagement rings for women, men’s gold sapphire rings, or even a custom family heirloom redesign? We’re here for it. You can use your own stone, or let us help you source something rare. Our sapphire jewelry for women (and men!) comes in every style, from sapphire solitaire rings to sapphire band rings.

Sapphire engagement ring meaning

For centuries, sapphires have stood for loyalty, wisdom and a deep running devotion. Royals and romantics, rebels and dreamers... they’ve all chosen sapphire as their symbol of commitment.

But what does it really mean when you choose a sapphire as your engagement ring?

At its heart, a sustainable sapphire engagement ring is a reminder that love is about truth. Sapphires have long been believed to encourage honesty and integrity. In ancient times, people wore sapphire rings to keep their intentions pure and their words true. When you slip on a sapphire, you’re wearing a vow to show up for each other, in every shade of joy, mess, adventure and growth.

There’s a reason engagement rings with sapphire have been the original “forever ring” long before diamonds became the standard. Sapphires symbolize the kind of relationship that isn’t afraid of the storm. Their depth of color stands for depth of feeling, and their legendary toughness (a 9 on the Mohs scale) is a nod to enduring love that actually goes the distance.

And here’s the best part: every sapphire tells its own story. Blue sapphires are classic: calm, grounding and steady. Pink sapphires stand for playfulness and warmth. Green sapphires? Growth, renewal, a love that’s always evolving. Whatever color you pick, your sapphire engagement ring meaning is as personal as the journey you’re on together.

So if you want a ring that says “I choose you, exactly as you are, every single day”, sapphire is your stone. Every custom sapphire engagement ring from Gardens of the Sun carries that invitation to grow in love, year after year.

Every sapphire is conflict free, responsibly sourced, and chosen for both beauty and origin. We’re B Corp certified, so you know we walk the talk.

Your custom sapphire engagement ring is handmade in Indonesia, each one shaped and set by our team of local goldsmiths and silversmiths. Whether you want a sapphire and diamond engagement ring, a solitaire sapphire ring, or a sapphire band with a cluster of tiny gems, we’ll craft it just for you.

CHOOSE YOUR METAL

Pair your sapphire with the metal that feels right:

• Yellow gold for warmth and glow
• White gold for a timeless look
• Rose gold for softness and romance
• Sterling silver for an affordable, budget silver sapphire engagement ring

We use ethically sourced gold from responsible, traceable sources, as well as recycled sterling silver, because a custom sapphire engagement ring this meaningful should also be made with care.

YOUR SAPPHIRE RING SETTING

We custom make every ring to suit your chosen sapphire. Here's how to let your setting do the talking:

• Basket Prong Setting: Secure base with prongs
• Split Prong Setting: Like a double hug, with elegant prong detail
• Wire Basket Prong Setting: Prongs with a thin wire instead of a full basket around the pavillion of your stone
• Open Bezel Setting: A secure bezel around the girdle, open around the pavillion. This elegant and protective setting works well for higher profile gems,
• Bezel Setting: Classic and clean, surrounds the gemstone in metal, ideal for active hands or everyday wear

Each setting brings out something different in your stone.

PERSONALIZE IT TO YOUR STYLE

Your sapphire ring should feel like you. Go minimalist or ornate. Sleek or textured. Add a secret engraving inside the band (we offer both laser and hand engraving at no extra cost). Your engraved sapphire ring is a little time capsule you’ll carry with you every day.

Stack, nest or pair your sapphire engagement ring with a diamond band or wedding ring for a bridal stack that’s all your own.
