hi everyone! this is my first post on the forum and was hoping to get some advice on the stone in the following link: http://www.thenaturalsapphirecompany.com/Sapphires/Blue/B2610/Cushion/stoneid=B2610
i really love the color and the cut but am pretty clueless about sapphires. my bf and i had originally decided on getting a diamond for an engagement ring but after i tried on a sapphire ring, i knew for sure that i preferred sapphires over diamonds! (of course, he''s really happy about that since sapphires are cheaper than diamonds) is this sapphire stone from NSC which I posted a good cut? after staring at it for half an hour, i suddenly realized that it may have a "window" although i''m not entirely certain if there is one, just that i''ve heard many folks make reference to "windowing". is this a good price for the stone? are there any comparable stones out there that may be of better value? any help and thoughts would really greatly appreciated - thanks in advance!!
