Please help me find a similar sapphire diamond ring

[malish985]

I found this beauty on LT but it is no longer available. Hoping I can find something that looks and is priced similar.
Stats from LT
Sapphire is a 4.36 carat "cut corner rectangular" and measures 8.88 x 8.07 x 5.30mm (EGL heat only)
Setting is the the "Alexa" from JYB Jewels, 18K

This was listed for 1.6K - I'm afraid that this was a unicorn, but hoping you ladies can help find something.

Thank you

A precision cut lab sapphire will cost you a few hundred (contact AlternativesLapidary@Etsy is the only precision cutter I know will work with lab material; generally likes to work on stuff over 1 carat). The setting is what is driving the cost here. Most lab material is poorly cut, so I think it is well worth it for the precision cutting and he can make sure it fits the setting. So, unlike normal, I'd suggest finding the setting first.

Thank you! Any thoughts on how much a non-lab sapphire this size/quality will cost?

HI @malish985 ~ I'd like to suggest that you ask the moderators to move this thread over to the Colored Stones forum (you can hit the Report Concern button & type in your request in the box that then will open). Many of the colored gems enthusiasts who could be of great assistance to you don't make a habit of visiting Rocky Talky, the forum dedicated to diamonds, & so will not see your query here.

Easily more than $10k...a lot more for a well cut stone with ideal color.

Depends on treatments and origin. Heated African sapphire approx. $4000 to $8000 depending upon colour and Non heated $8000 to twice that amount or more. Burmese or Sri Lankan probably over $10 000 for something decent, again, it depends on the colour of the stone and the treatment heat, no heat etc. You might be able to find a cheaper sapphire preloved or of a non ideal colour.
