Ava Emerald Cut Mint Green Sapphire Engagement Ring in Sterling Silver

Cool as sea glass and just as rare. This green sapphire engagement ring frames a 6 × 8mm emerald-cut genuine mint-green sapphire — a soft, watery blue-green corundum of roughly 1.7 carats — flanked by bright simulated diamond accents. Crafted in solid 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish, it is an elegant, unexpected alternative for a bride who wants color without leaving the classic sapphire family.

An emerald-cut ring with quiet architecture

The emerald cut is all long, clean facet lines — a hall-of-mirrors step cut that trades restless sparkle for calm, glassy clarity, letting the mint-green color pour through the stone. Slim simulated diamond accents sit to either side, lifting the center without competing with it, on a delicate 1.7mm band. It is a minimalist, modern silhouette with vintage bones, and it sits naturally among our sapphire engagement rings. Because green reads as fresh and organic, it also feels at home with our nature-inspired engagement rings. New to colored stones? Our guide to sapphire engagement rings is a helpful place to start.

The mint-green sapphire

This center is a genuine lab-grown sapphire — real corundum grown in controlled conditions, with the exact chemistry, color saturation and hardness of a mined stone. Its blend of blue and green lands in that captivating mint-teal register that is genuinely uncommon in colored gems, shifting subtly as the light moves. Most importantly, it is a true sapphire, which means a superb Mohs 9 hardness — second only to diamond and outstanding for the knocks of everyday life, making it a confident choice for a ring you will never take off. If you love unusual colored stones, our piece on alexandrite versus sapphire is a fascinating comparison.

Simulated diamond accents

A pair of simulated diamonds (cubic zirconia) flank the center, adding a crisp flash of white that makes the mint-green glow read even cooler and cleaner. It is a bright, value-savvy way to add classic engagement-ring shimmer, and it pairs effortlessly with the soft color at the center. Prefer moissanite or lab-grown diamond accents? Reach out and we can craft it that way.

Sterling silver with a rhodium finish

The band is solid 925 sterling silver — 92.5% pure silver throughout, not plated base metal — finished with a layer of rhodium, the same precious metal used on fine white gold. That rhodium finish gives every ring a bright, mirror-white luster and a protective shield that resists tarnish and everyday scratches, while the cool white metal is the perfect foil for a green stone. Genuine sterling silver is nickel-free and hypoallergenic, so it will not turn your finger green.

What a sapphire ring symbolizes

Sapphire has meant wisdom, loyalty and faithful love for millennia, and a green-leaning sapphire adds associations of growth and renewal — a lovely subtext for a relationship you intend to nurture. It is the September birthstone and the traditional fifth and forty-fifth anniversary stone, so it carries gift meaning built in.

Sizing & care

Select your size at checkout; the band runs true to size and comfort-fit, and if you are unsure we are glad to help before you order. If the fit needs adjusting, resizing is available and starts from a modest fee. Thanks to its Mohs 9 hardness the sapphire shrugs off daily wear — keep it brilliant by cleaning with warm water and a soft brush, removing it before swimming or applying lotions, and avoiding harsh chemicals that can dull the rhodium. Store it in its velvet box so the accents and finish stay pristine. You will find more everyday colored pieces in our sapphire jewelry range.
