What shade of blue is this sapphire?

[deuteriumhusky]

My friend told me that this stone was cornflower blue while the buyer said that this stone was royal blue? What do the wonderful people of price scope think?

Cornflower and royal blue are metaphors and romanticized marketing terms. You shouldn't buy a stone based on a marketing name. But I'd like to hear other's opinions on the matter.

One person's cornflower is another one's royal. Forget the names; go for what you like.

Took the typed words right out of my hands.

Cornflowers come in many different shades of blue.

Beautiful romantic marketing names but I agree that someone's cornflower is someone else's royal blue.
It's a beautiful blue! Is it yours?

I'd say half royal blue and half cornflower blue.

Yes the stone is mine.
