Rings that pair the sapphire and the diamond have a sense of timeless sophistication, whether their style is vintage, contemporary or anywhere in between. These combinations of two classic precious gemstones have a contrasting look that never fails to draw the eye and that will always be in good taste.

This contrast makes sapphire engagement rings with diamond accents an excellent way to celebrate a love that never goes out of style, and the Vintage Style Sapphire and Diamond Engagement Ring is a gorgeous example. This irresistibly sophisticated piece displays a 5mm round sapphire and surrounds it with 64 accents diamonds arranged in a lavish Victorian-inspired design. Elegant beaded edges offset these diamonds, creating a look that perfectly captures the love that sweeps your off your feet. This romantic ring is an unforgettable way to pop the question and a stunning symbol of your adoration.

Regardless of whether you’re planning a proposal, sapphire and diamond rings provide a big dose of style. If a classic style is more your taste, try a simple piece such as a three-stone ring or the Five Stone Sapphire and Diamond Ring in 14K White Gold to work the navy and white trend into your look. This ring alternates five oval-shaped sapphires, each 4mm wide (a full carat of sapphires in all!), with four small accent diamonds for a look that calls to mind timeless nautical stripes, but with a lot more sparkle. This classy 14K white gold ring could serve as a stunning anniversary ring as well as a fashion piece.

If you’d like a sapphire and diamond ring with a big dose of fun, don’t miss the lighthearted Sapphire and Diamond Heart Ring! This pieces forms the shape of a heart from six small sapphires, and gives it a contrasting border of glittering diamonds. This sweet, sparkling symbol of love is held by a highly-polished 14K white gold band for a look that’s cool without being too serious. This ring is an excellent way to declare your love—or just your love of fun yet sophisticated style. If you like this look, but would prefer a ring with a floral touch, try the Sapphire and Diamond Floral Ring in 14K White Gold, which surrounds a flower-shaped cluster of six round sapphires with a border of diamonds.

Sapphire rings with diamond accents may be an excellent way to work the navy and white trend into your look, but these pieces aren’t just passing fads. These rings timelessly combine deep, rich color with dazzling sparkle.

Like all sapphires, pink sapphires are very hard, ranking just below the diamond in their ability to resist scratching and stand up to wear and tear. Thus, sapphire rings and other pieces of jewelry that feature this pink variety of this stone are quite durable and poised to last for generations: they’re easy to care for and difficult to damage.

Pink topaz and diamonds are a sophisticated combination as the unique hue of pink sapphire plays against colorless, light-reflecting sparkle. The Pink Sapphire and Diamond Ring in 14K White Gold is an excellent example of these two stones’ ability to complement one another to form truly beautiful pieces. This timeless style features three oval-shaped pink sapphires, totaling 0.75 carats, placing them side by side and accenting them with a cluster of small diamonds on the right and left.

The 14K White Gold Pink Sapphire and Diamond Ring is another gorgeous example of the complementary nature of pink sapphire and diamonds. This modern classic style alternates these two stones to create a look that calls to mind a perfectly beaded bracelet. Over a carat of oval-shaped pink sapphires are interspersed with four smaller round diamonds, allowing both gems to fill a bit of the spotlight.

Pink sapphire is an excellent choice for modern styles as it gives these looks extra pop and a lot of personality. For instance, the Pink Sapphire and Diamond Wave Ring in 14K White Gold uses pink topaz and diamonds to create a chic contemporary look that’s both playful and sophisticated. A round pink sapphire sparkles as the centerpiece of this ring, hugged by a band that swoops gracefully around it like two ocean waves dancing in unison. Five channel-set diamonds adorn one side of this band, adding glimmer, as well an asymmetrical touch that contributes to this piece’s modern sensibility.

For a touch of feminine sparkle that will never go out of style, you can’t go wrong with pink sapphire studs such as the Pink Sapphire Stud Earrings in 14K White Gold. While this style is simple, these earrings add zing to your look with their brilliantly-colored gems. Choose from 4mm, 5mm or 6mm stones for the just the right pop of pink. In addition to this white gold pair, Apples of Gold also carries 14k yellow gold and platinum variations.

Any of these pink sapphire rings or earrings can add a pop of personality to your look as they convey a feeling of fun along with a sense of sophistication. Try one for a zing of bright sparkle and daring yet feminine charm.
