Need Opinion: Yellow Sapphire Ring

[chrono]

When you set a limit of a specific shape and measurement, you've increased the difficulty of the search exponentially. I would relax both of these to open up your choices, at the very least, the exact measurements.

Hi there good luck with your hunt!! I love Montana sapphires (as everyone knows...I am new to gems but they are so unique) some good examples of yellow ones can be found on gemfix.com

They do exhibit colour zoning which if you like something a little different could be for you?

All the best!

These might work for you.

Have either your local jeweller or any online vendor you decide to work with contact Pala to get you pricing. Not the best cut but better than most. Colouration looks promising and it has the bonus of being a calibrated size.

Not the best colour but the cutting is good and calibrated size.

This one has tempted me forever with good colour and excellent faceting. It isn't the typical spessartite colouration, showing more red but it is also easy to set, being a calibrated size.

OK I am starting to consider going with a round setting and opening up my options for the type of stone.

How about either of these?

http://www.gemfix.com/sapphire_montana.html - sapphire_montana_304. 7.4 mm round on left side of page. Is $1800 high for a montana sapphire? Looks like it has incredible sparkle.

THANK YOU!

Zircon is chippy and expect to see facet abrasion sooner rather than later in a ring. I suspect this one to be paler IRL.

Not yellow at all but some brownish sort of colour.

DING DING DING! I like this one a lot. Rich bright yellow with excellent faceting.

I can't comment at all about the sapphires as I would defer to Chrono for her expertise ALWAYS! However the setting looks very similar to another PS'er who had theirs made with an oval yellow diamond by Leon Mege.

So you think $1895 is a fair price for the sapphire? It is gorgeous!

That 30th anniversary ring is very similar and beautiful! Something to look forward to!

Done deal. Bought the Montana sapphire. Of course they are closed until May 27th so I'll have to be patient....

Chrono, thank you SO MUCH for all your help! I know it will be gorgeous.
