My Sapphire Roval! Should I re-cut the crown?

[Love in Bloom]

I'm SO glad it's not being recut. The colour is great and the cutting is actually a very good "native" cut. There's not only a slight face up size loss with a recut but also the saturation might be affected, plus who knows if any colour zoning might jump out.

Thanks Chrono. Jerry pointed out some interesting features, such as the split main facets and some other things about the pavilion that are atypical of native cutting. These are features I like very much!

I came here to find you, Love in Bloom, because I think you have a VC ring listed on DB and you didn't tell us here by starting a thread on the preloved forum!!! I wouldn't be posting now if the ring was my size , but I thought maybe you weren't aware of the pre-loved forum which is under PS Cafe.

That sapphire is the most gorgeous color!!!

Hey DS! Thanks about my sapphire and for the heads up re: the preloved forum. I have a few other things to offer besides the ring and gemstones, so that's very good to know

Very lovely stone - and your photos are much nicer of it than Gary's!

Look forward to seeing how you set it.
