Especially in the Edwardian period, beginning of the 20th century, sapphires were set as an eye-catcher in yellow and white gold rings. Later also in platinum. In this case, a light to dark blue sapphire can be set in the middle of each one brilliant, flanking it left and right. Common there was also a 5 Stone variant in which sapphires and diamonds alternate. In Art Deco from the 1920s to the 1940s, engagement rings with sapphires were usually made with larger ring heads.
