If you could only have one more stone...

aw, TL, so kind. i have 3 kids and would like to leave each one of them a special piece ... my engagement ring, the sapphire and the ruby-to-be. but to be perfectly honest, i wonder if i will ever be able to find such a stone when i am ready to purchase it (maybe in 2-3 years?) i have been looking at rubies off and on for a while but not too seriously. but i know enough that stones like that are incredibly hard to come by ... fingers crossed and i am sure to be back on pricescope asking for opinions when the time comes!
 
So Uppy, now you want both your pretty ruby AND the MM back - lol :Up_to_something:

Hard, tough decision for me..... probably a perfect cushion "Paraiba" tourmaline, big enough to be a statement BUT small enough to set in a ring (maybe 9 - 10mm - we are dreaming now right?) The only downside to that is I would be afraid to wear it.

This surprises you?? :naughty:
 
Nope!
 
The two stones to end all my wants:

1) neon paraiba tourmaline (like that unique one of a kind one from Leon Mege with the center paraiba center and then surrounded by paraibas with the black metal design)

2) red diamond (any cut) in a white gold diamond halo ring
 
Would I be asking too much for at least 10ct, hot pink colored natural diamond? :snore:

Whereas I'm thinking, since I have a blue and a red (well red with modifiers, to keep Kenny happy!), I'd like a pink one!

And, yes, I too dream of an Octavia! Since I got my asscher sapphire I'm inclined towards step cuts (and my blue halo languishes in the jewelry box!).

Maybe the hot pink part.... :)
 
ok, Back to reality. Treasure what you have :tongue:
 
Wow some really consistant desires here! :read:

- Massive FCD
- Paraiba Tourmalines (totally lagoon/neon colour)
- Spinel (pink/red and massive)
- Octavia anything really........ :lol:

I find it so interesting that such a large, diverse group of people from all over the world are all hankering after the same thing! :naughty:
 
If I had the means I would choose a color change Alexandrite or Sapphire. It would need to be a lighter green/blue changing to red or purple. But it would have to be a lighter green/blue in normal daylight and it would have to be over 2 carats.
 
A beautiful blue diamond
 
Last night, I bought a 1.27 cuprian tourmaline (from Mozambique) from Jeff Davies.

I'll post pics when I get it.
 
Oh, no the stone :naughty:
 
Probably a very large catseye alexandrite (let's say 9mm?) with perfect trasnparent crystal, excellent chatoyancy, florescent mahenge spinel red to tsavorite green color change and beautiful color in all lighting. Too much to ask for?
