Hapsburg Sapphire & Pearl Ring

That was the order of things throughout history. Royal marriages were more about merging kingdoms than settling down with your soul mate. When kings chose their queen it was more calculated business venture than passionate impulse. But now and then, those royals really did fall in love.

Call me a hopeless romantic, but as I strolled through the Imperial Treasury in Vienna, some of the exquisite jewelry felt like much more than just "government property." One collection from an Austrian princess in particular caught my eye and inspired our Hapsburg Sapphire & Pearl Collection. The ring showcases a stunning natural sapphire cabochon set in meticulously- detailed 14K yellow gold. The scrolling and twisting goldwork cradles brilliant white cultured pearls, smaller sapphire cabochons and a quartet of natural, brilliant-cut diamonds. The companion 14K gold bracelet echoes the design of the ring with the added flash of six natural ruby cabochons. This royal couple is bound to help you live happily ever after!
