Hello all,
I've been looking to buy a purple-ish sapphire to use as a center stone to re-do my wedding ring for our 20th anniversary. Been looking for a short while and came across one I really liked, and to my (very) untrained eye looked like a nice stone. When I got it yesterday, gemstone euphoria took over and I loved the color, etc. Now this morning by the light of day, I'm not so sure and think it may have to go back so would love any and all opinions.
Stone is a 2.23ct VVs cushion cut pink sapphire, unheated, from Sri Lanka with a brief report from AIGS. Dimensions are 8.84mm x 6.05mm x 4.37mm.
Here is seller's pic:
My pics:
First in low natural light:
Next in incandescent lighting:
Finally in direct natural light:
Also, here is a link to seller's video of stone:
