This ring is a few years old now but I thought I might post it now (COVID and free time ha!).

A few years ago I was looking for an alternative engagement ring. We were saving for a house etc and didn't feel right spending all that money on a diamond (how wrong I was!). I chose an asscher cut pale blue Ceylon sapphire (1.43cts 6.6. x 6.2mm). I absolutely adore step cuts! I designed the ring with Andrea who was ever so helpful!

To be honest even after the 5 or 6 years of having it, I love the setting so much. I have been tempted to replace the sapphire with a diamond but couldn't bring myself to do it.

It is also sad to hear the Rogerio and Andrea are slowing down their business and transitioning to retirement.

Lovely ring and pretty sapphire! Still looks pristine -- just like the name.

Thank you so much! I should have got it cleaned first and my nails done too for that matter. But it does still sparkle and the white gold hasn't needed replating yet. I do love it so much!
 
It’s a very pretty delicate colour and suits you very well.

I am a complete coloured stone convert and wear my coloured stones as my Ering more than my diamond
 
Wonderful ring!
This is perfection in my eyes. I live the blue sky color, the cut of your sapphire, the delicate halo!.
if one day you would like to sell it, I would be happy to take care of it .
 
Absolutely beautiful! I love lighter sapphires and the setting is gorgeous.

Thank you Penny. I do love the lighter coloured sapphires (the dark ones I feel are too mature) also it does bring out the asscher cut more too. I love everything about the setting from the bezel to the milgrain.
I do love coloured stones but I do love diamonds too. If only I had a choice. Will be getting a diamond later this year so I will see which one I like wearing more.

Oh Snow White, that is the biggest compliment ever! That you'd buy my ring! I agree with everything you said about the ring and that's the reason why I chose it as well. The light blue colour brings out the cut. The halo down to the mm is delicate yet sturdy enough (I am hard on my rings). Just the simple details that make it different. I am really happy that you appreciate my ring as much as I do. :kiss2:

Absolutely beautiful! I love lighter sapphires and the setting is gorgeous.

Thank you Millie, I love lighter sapphires too. Although I am starting to appreciate the cornflower blues too but that is way more expensive.
 
Wow, what a beautiful baby blue color sapphire ring!! The beautiful cut somehow really gives light to the color.
Love the setting too!! I never tire of all the beautiful shades sapphires come in!
Wish I could have every one! Enjoy and continue to wear in good health!
 
I love that shade of blue and the halo really compliments it. What a beautiful engagement ring. Sometimes I wish I had opted for a color stone e-ring.
 
What a lovely engagement ring! I really like the setting, it has just enough bling factor :-) The lighter blue sapphires can be very pretty, I have one set in platinum with a diamond halo.
 
My goodness that is pretty!!! Such a beautiful icy blue :kiss2:

I do really love the light baby blue colour. But like you I also appreciate the other blue shades that sapphires come in. Although next on my list would be a red gemstone. Then we can revisit the cornflower blue sapphire! Your sapphire ring is gorgeous!

Thank you for the compliments. I sometimes feel like I need a diamond e-ring though. Sometimes it's nice when you have options.

What a lovely engagement ring! I really like the setting, it has just enough bling factor :) The lighter blue sapphires can be very pretty, I have one set in platinum with a diamond halo.

Leslie, I saw your lighter round sapphire with the platinum halo. I actually really like the lighter sapphires that people aren't used to seeing. All we get here in Australia at the B&M stores are those super dark almost black sapphires and I don't find them appealing at all.

My goodness that is pretty!!! Such a beautiful icy blue :kiss2:

Thank you so much! It can be darker or lighter depending on the lighting. I just noticed that I am currently quite tanned which makes the sapphire even lighter?
 
So pretty! I have done business with them too and I agree that Andrea is helpful and kind. I love your sky blue sapphire and the setting is perfect for it!
 
What a gorgeous ring!! That sapphire color is just beautiful and I love the setting. It looks perfect on you! <3

Thank you! Yes Andrea is ever so helpful and listens to what I wanted. I still love the ring now so I guess I did pretty well with it =)2

Thank you! I never get bored of it. I think it's just beautiful too. I really love the colour and the setting. Really appreciate your kind words!
