Opinion on peach sapphire?

[OhElizabeth]

Hi there, I have fallen in love with the look of rose gold engagement rings with peachy pink stones like morganite, peach sapphire or peach spinels. I am looking for a dainty petite ring that I can wear comfortably everyday. I will be getting this tacori setting . I think I have found a peach sapphire which suits the color I want but I wanted to ask anyone with more knowledge to chime in. I would really appreciate it. The picture is my inspiration picture and how I want the shade to look for reference. Any thoughts? Thank you!

Hanks for being honest, do you know of any good resources? My local tacori dealer hasn't been very helpful after I expressed that I was not interested in purchasing a diamond. Any tips on what to look for besides a smaller window? I am completely new to gems as I have not hate any. Really nice jewelry before. Thank you.

Have you looked at JuliaB jewelry on Etsy? She has both loose gems and rings in the color you're interested in.

I'd suggest JuliaB as well. She's also super responsive to messages via etsy, and has some lovely sapphires with much better cuts than the one you posted. This one reminds me a little of your inspiration ring:

Is there a specific mm size you are looking for? The stone you posted isn't calibrated at 6 x 5 mm and would need a customized setting.

 

[OhElizabeth]

No, tacori will customize the setting to accommodate the stone

A peach/pink sapphire is commonly marketed as a Padparadscha and will cost a LOT of money. A morganite often turns out to pale and washed out and not really every day ring material. Spinel is probably your best bet.

Have you checked out Gemfix? http://www.gemfix.com/spinel.html specifically #306. Precision cut, nice size for a halo and under $1,000.

Description: Extremely brilliant! Light silvery-pink with peach flashes. Excellent cut and clarity. (Cut by Andrew Gulij)

Peach refers to brown padparadcha or basically a very light pad stones that are have some brown undertones due to its lack of saturation of colour.
