Sapphire Upgrades

[marcy]

I recently upgraded by blue sapphires - both for my ring and my studs. I also trade in an orange sapphire for a yellow sapphire.

The YG blue sapphire ring has now had 3 round sapphires on it. I had a .97 carat 6mm, then a 1.56 6.5mm round and now this is a 1.79 carat 7mm sapphire. The YG setting has 4 pointers round diamond accents.

The earrings are my 3rd pair starting with 4mm rounds, then 4.5mm and now 5 mm.

The platinum ring has .39 ctw side diamonds and the yellow sapphire is a square cushion 2.13 carats 7mm. I had a 5.5mm round sapphire in this ring before.

The yellow sapphire has been challenging to capture in photos. It goes from bright yellow to golden yellow (reminds me of yellow beryl) and so fiery I get a lot of reflection back on the pictures.

I am a fan of upgrades - it's nice having a huge down payment towards a larger gemstone.

Marcy, these sapphires are just gorgeous. I love them and they look so good on you. It's amazing how you can choose these mesmerizing colors. I love them and can stare at them all the day long. Thank you for sharing so many beautiful pictures. They look different in each picture. I am a lover of blue, but that yellow is just YUMMY.

Thank you LLJsmom. This is my first piece of a yellow colored stone. I am going to enjoy it.

I love all your stones,Marcy! Where do you purchase them that you can upgrade them?

 

[marcy]

Thank you Luv2sparkle. I go to a place in Denver that has a great upgrade policy. You only have to spend a $1.00 more than what you trade in. I've taken advantage of that policy many times over the years.

Beautiful sapphires and the yellow sapphire is totally gorgeous. Blue sapphires always look so regal to me. Enjoy your upgrades!!!

 

[MissGotRocks]

Very pretty - I love the blue! Congrats on the upgrades!!

 

[arkieb1]

Lovely upgrades congrats!!! You are so lucky you have a store where you can upgrade most CS vendors don't do that.

Really lovely! I especially admire the yellow sapphire

 

[PintoBean]

Stunning sapphires! I am particularly taken with that shade of blue.

 

[marcy]

Thank you JJDN. The yellow sapphire really has a lot of fire but it has been hard to capture in photos. My hunt for a nice blue sapphire is what started me down the path to my current colored gemstone collection.

Thank you MissGotRocks. When I go in for an upgrade I always tell them up front I want sapphires that are royal blue.

Thank you arkieb1. I think it’s awesome I can upgrade my sapphires and rubies there as easily as I can diamonds. It makes it nice. They allow you to trade in jewelry for another piece of jewelry but on that the new piece has to be double what you paid for the first piece.

Thank you aac2013. Silly me I worried I would think the yellow sapphire was too big but I quickly realized that wasn’t going to be a problem.

Thank you PintoBean. That shade of blue seems like a perfect shade for a blue sapphire.

Thank you Junebug. I am really enjoying the yellow sapphire. It is so different from anything else I have.

Thank you Sarahb. Blue and yellow are my favorite color so it’s nice to have them in sapphires.

Thank you CRYSTAL24K. I have gotten quicker at knowing what I like and what I don't. I guess it's from practice.

 

[azstonie]

Beautiful, Marcy!!!! You've got a gorgeous collection going

 

[marcy]

[marcy]

I finally got some sunshine today so got a few more shots of the yellow sapphire ring.

[missy]

OMG GORGEOUS!

LOVE the blue and the yellow. So vibrant and bright. That beautiful blue and sunny rich yellow.
The bright blue sky and the warm bold sun. The colors of happiness.

You have a beautiful collection Marcy!

 

[marcy]

Thank you Sphene. I finally got to see the yellow sapphire with a lot of direct sun and it had a lot of fire. I am always driving when I see it though so can’t get a picture.

Thank you Missy. I love yellow and blue together but of course I can only wear one of my sapphire rings at once.

 

[msop04]

I really love your sapphires -- especially the yellow one!!

 

[marcy]

Thank you msop04. I've been wearing the yellow one every day since I got it.
