Hi there;
This is my first post so I am a newbie! I am looking for an emerald or radiant cut ice blue sapphire. I am thinking in the size range of 8mmx6.5 mm give or take, and I prefer rectangular shapes but would consider more square. I would prefer a stone located in Canada as that I where I am...
Does anyone have advice about buying this type of stone and what I should be looking for? I found a beautiful one that I love, but the jeweler told me it is likely heat treated, as they assume all of their sapphires are. It is about $1200 CAD (7.3mmx7mm and 2.3 carats) I also found one on the natural sapphire company website that I love but it is a bit too small (7.6mm x 5mm 1.37 carats) for about $1000 USD, but I like that is natural and not heat treated... should this make a huge difference?
any advice would be great!
Thanks!
Tess
