HI:

Thank you for the link. I read the story--and noticed a typo: spelled Ottawa wrong! LOL

Size aside, I’m not a fan.
the larger one has obvious colour zoning and neither seem to have the “glow”. Maybe it’s the lighting, maybe they just aren’t premium examples of Kashmir sapphires.
I would be wanting Vivid AND glow, so I’ll pass.

@PinkAndBlueBling this made me LOL! Because I was thinking the same thing for myself! Haha

One thing's for sure: whoever buys it is not keeping them in that brooch...
