Help finding a similar parti sapphire

[itswhiskey]

First timer here needing some help! I’m looking to propose and I fell in love with this sapphire, however it’s out of budget & the seller doesn’t have a 1 carat version in stock

https://www.etsy.com/listing/1739359244/unheated-4-carat-carat-parti-sapphire?click_key=a13731a77802cf8af252b915ea7c9d912e3c98b7%3A1739359244&click_sum=314d0edc&ref=shop_home_active_1&pro=1&frs=1

Anyone seen anything close 1 carat? I was hoping to propose next month on our holiday.

Does it need to be blue and yellow?

 

[lovedogs]

Also what's your budget?

 

[lovedogs]

Probably not everyone's preference with the color zoning and shape, but I like this

I just quickly skimmed etsy to see what was out there... here are some stones that loosely fit your parameters. Naturally, if you decide to buy from any of these vendors, proceed with caution. I have no idea of their fitness. Good luck!

I think it’s really pretty and unusual. I’d wear it. @lovedogs would it shine in a pendant or would it need to be in a ring?

Are you open to Australian sapphires? I stumbled across a forum on FB called Spectrum Gems and Gemcutting. This is where Australian miners and cutters are posting their items for sale! Further into that rabbit hole, I found the work of Josh Lards, who is Joshuajewels on IG. Screenshot below shows some of his work (in Australian dollars, so that 4 carat $4000 stone is actually about $2600 in USD. He's super helpful and responsive, sent me some photos and video pretty quickly when I inquired

Worth a look!

Thank you, although beautiful these aren’t really the colour I’m hoping for & my gf has put it out there quite frequently that she wants cushion shape. I didn’t think about these extra details when posting.

Thank you, I’ll look at the loose. I had a convo with the dainty seller a while back & they were terrible at communication so I didn’t feel comfortable proceeding. The seller I posted was super responsive & helpful. Thanks I’ll checkout the vivid links.

It’s been a LONG search and now it’s crunch time. I’m starting to think I’ll need to push back the date if I don’t find one soon. Thankfully the jeweler I’ve commissioned is willing to do a rush order when it comes in

I would reach out to Adamant, they're great, and they have a ton of stones. The cutting and crystal is good- that's important.

It's going to be harder to find a good parti that doesn't come off as muddy on the hand in a particular shape on a budget super quickly. Not impossible, but see if she's open to anything other shape? They seem to like to cut these in radiants and other angular shapes.

Thanks I’m definitely running out of time and I’ve been searching for a few months now.

She’s set on cushion, so I’m going to run with that for the time being. If needs be I’ll push back the date to get what she wants.

Who knew this would be such a long process haha

Oh wow that’s nice.

Thank you. I was nervous now that I can’t find the right gem. Glad I found this place

Does it need to be blue and yellow?

Blue & yellow (small bit of green ok but not taking over the stone), and cushion. I didn’t think to add this or expect such amazing reponses

I found this beauty at gemdragonauctions: https://gemdragonauctions.com/collections/auction-7-28/products/parti-sapphire-nigeria

Just too bad it’s unusually shaped. (I bought from this website and Joe Henley’s Rough plenty of times so I can attest for them).
