I must say I'm a little sad! I was going to reboot it with some updates in the next few days as I've *tentatively* found the stone I've been hoping for and had also received some photos from gem select of one of the stones that other members suggested. Maybe I'll start a new thread or just leave things be at this point unless the mods can remove this lovely person.
I've also been peeking at this forum since I was 25, and whilst I do have some major old lady energy I don't think I can be quite classed as a moldy oldy just yet at 29 hopefully
Good ! (About reclaiming your thread)Stuff it! I'm going to reclaim this thread anyway!
I heard back from gem select on the stone quite a few of you liked. I got a one line generic response - 'I have inspected this Sapphire myself and can verify that it is a very high quality gem. The video clip we have shows very well how the gem looks in real life.'
They also attached an additional picture and to be completely honest I was definitely very underwhelmed by it. Again I do like dark stones, but this just felt so lifeless. I also feel like it contradicts them saying that it matches the video but maybe that's just me!

I did also have a bit more luck with the Natural Sapphire company. The sales associate has gone above and beyond with helping me so far and has been incredibly kind, patient and not at all pushy. I requested 3 more stones to see and they happily provided multiple photos and videos in different lighting conditions to compare the stones. I know they're by no means trade ideal, but I like some quirks and windows (one of my favorite sapphire rings I've seen is an incredibly overpriced sapphire that is basically a giant window of a stone
The two side stones were mainly for comparison, but the center stone I really love and is giving me the color I was hoping for *fingers crossed*. My return gets to them on Monday and they're going to take more photos of the stone then so that I can compare them side by side and see if it's a genuine size and color improvement.
Video is below for anyone interested!
lol! You have given me the confidence to also admit my little old lady tendencies, and I'm in my thirties.
OMG he has never looked better! How is that even possible?

I am going to have to agree... I think that stone may be a bust. "Dark and lifeless" is just how I'd describe it.
Now this looks like it could be exactly what you're after!! Moody and earthy! I look forward to hearing your review on this stone. BTW, I feel like I'm recognizing that as Lauren's hand. Am I right?
I still can't help loving how the windows make it feel old and a little wonky though and the modern setting balances that. I'm not an antiques girl as much as I may want to be but I like that it also doesn't feel new and perfect. Just my very silly take on windows!

It may have a slight window but I'm not concerned about that as long as the color itself feels even throughout the stone. I'm actually embarrassed to post this to a bunch of stone pros but I still always like this ring (minus the price tag!)
The video on the site shows the window even better, it's basically just a giant window at some points

Edit - Also meant to add, I've been debating if this would look good with a muted pink as the accent stones! I'd LOVE to see any pictures you have of the ring you're speaking about.
This is my engagement ring reset and I love the side sapphire reveal and am debating doing something similar. I love blues but don't want to just do the same thing over and over so was debating pinks as a pretty option!
I've been purging photos recently so I kept mainly the ones that had a more bluish green diamond with pinks, but this should give you a general idea. The top photo has more of an olive green. On the multi ring photo check out the the lower bypass ring pear.It may have a slight window but I'm not concerned about that as long as the color itself feels even throughout the stone.
