Beacon Hill
Blue Sapphire and Diamond
Ring
Beacon Hill: brick row houses, pretty doors, antique lanterns, narrow cobblestone streets leading down to the Charles. Beacon Hill is an American classic; open, airy, gems poised, ready for light and brilliance. Beacon Hill is solid, safe, and secure. Big round blue sapphire, two natural earth-mined Ideal-cut diamonds, 18K white gold. Gems set in our Portland, Maine shop.
Our sapphire jewelry starts with the selection of the individual gem. We choose our gems one at a time and evaluate them under different lighting conditions to find the best-performing sapphires. The result is a gem that is bright, blue, and brilliant – everything you want in a sapphire.
Why a Cross Sapphire is the Best
We love blue. We know blue. We live by the blue sea, beneath summer blue skies. Our business is located on a peninsula called Portland, surrounded by saltwater on three sides. We can feel the blue ocean pulsing with every tide. From the rooftop of our building, we can see the open sea. Binoculars show ships coming and going on a blue, blue sea.
We love blue sapphire: It is bright, brilliant and is amazingly durable. As the second hardest gem to diamond, it is a highly wearable gem, ideal for rings. We love blue sapphire…we love it so much that we have traveled to southeast Asia to find first-choice colors. We choose a lighter, brighter blue than most American jewelers because it shows up best under a wide range of real-world lighting conditions. Our blue sapphires look and perform best on everything from sunny days to a candlelit dinner for two.
We want your blue sapphire to dazzle you, dazzle your partner and everyone in any room you visit. Cross’ blue sapphires are the best.
Heirloom Quality. Made in America.
Beacon Hill has been made using the finest jewelry making techniques. The precious metal has gone through a die striking process, resulting in a superior finished piece than is typically found in jewelry made today.
The precious metal has been compressed and compacted under fifty tons of pressure to a denser form. The die striking process not only results in a more durable long lasting piece of jewelry, but also one that takes a brighter more lustrous polish.
