Hi,
1. I understand that H&A round is best for sparkle for it comes to diamonds. I'm very new at gem stones and need advice on which shape is preferred for ruby or sapphire. I'm considering both for RHR. I know "big belly" is good for color saturation, but what shape is preferred? I see many ovals around. Is there a reason for that?
2. Ruby and sapphire, which is more durable?
3. I know my 1st question is which shape is preferred for best performance. But I really love cushion shape. If I were to get a cushion shape gem, is there H&A cushion or maltese cross cushion in ruby/sapphire just like in diamond?
Thank you.
