Seven Pear Shapes, All Leaning Into the Same Colour
Pear cut stones already carry a natural sense of direction - rounded at one end, tapering to a point at the other. The Novena Ring sets seven of them together, all in a teal that shifts between blue and green depending on the light.
The ring carries seven pear cut natural Australian teal sapphires, totalling 1.80ct.
What's Actually Happening With the Colour
Teal sapphires get their hue from a natural overlap of blue and green pigmentation within the stone itself, rather than sitting cleanly as one colour or the other. Depending on the light and the angle, the balance shifts - sometimes reading cooler and more blue, sometimes warmer and greener.
Natural Australian sapphires have built a genuine reputation in this particular colour, with local stones often carrying a depth and richness that's become closely associated with Australian origin specifically.
Why the Pear Shape Adds Something Here
A pear cut gives each stone a distinct sense of direction with that tapering point drawing the eye along its length rather than settling into a plain, rounded outline. With seven of them arranged together at a substantial 1.80ct total, the design has genuine scale and movement, each stone's point suggesting a slightly different direction.
Warm 9ct Yellow Gold
Crafted in 9ct yellow gold, the Novena Ring pairs a rich, classic metal tone with the sapphires' shifting blue-green colour, giving the whole design a grounded, considered warmth.
Why Teal Pairs So Easily
Because it never fully commits to blue or green, teal has a genuine flexibility most single-toned stones don't. It sits comfortably next to a blue-heavy wardrobe just as easily as a green one, without ever looking like the odd one out.
