ya’ll remember when the morganite craze hit? I jumped on the bandwagon (knowing nothing about morganite for daily wear) and got this cute little 14k rose gold ring with a 7mm morganite.
Long story short, I damaged the morganite by heavy use. Oops.

I want to replace the morganite with something else, preferably a colored stone and most preferably a pink sapphire.

I’m not looking to invest a lot into this project, but I wanted to get feelers to see if anyone had any 7mm pink sapphires laying around. :)

What about a blush pink zircon? (Zircons are such fireballs! ) This one is 6.6mm and only $80.

i love that! i actually saw that one. super pretty! i'm not sure if the mm will fit... i should really find a jeweler and ask about that
 
Although for daily wear a sapphire might be a better choice honestly. Are you open to lab created? They are budget friendly and beautiful. I have a lab pink from Precision Gem that is amazing. (Not for sale )
You could check his site.

absolutely! That's a great idea since I don't want to invest a lot into this project as of right now. i'd love to see a picture of yours!
 
Sure! I have the one from Precision Gem (inside top, outside bottom). The cutting is incredible:

I have another one on the way, a softer pink, not from any known lapidary, but pretty nice:

wow that is beautfu! is that the bright pink color option? It's stunning!! i see he has a pad option too.. decisions decisions!
 
Oh yeah, I forgot you can custom order from him. I think mine is the bright pink. It's hot pink to magenta with purple flashes. I bought mine off of the PS preloved forum.
I'm sure his pads are beautiful too. His cutting is fantastic, I'm sure you'll be thrilled no matter which you choose!
Maybe someone on the Fab Fashion forum has one of his lab pads?

yay! thank you so much for your help! <3
 
Garnets can be a pretty pink and premier on IG often has them. He will also cut to spec if needed:



Sapphire is much harder though.
 
Another option is spinel, a very durable and super sparkly gem. This one is from PS'er Desert Rose. You can buy from her on Instagram. I got zircons from her that are beautiful.
