Yellow Sapphires

Harriet Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,800 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 7/7/2006	I came across this boulder: http://www.palagems.com/php/db_search.php?action=gemdetail&inventory_number=14982 104.76 carats and NO treatment. Wasn't someone looking for a yellow sapphire recently? This one's a more reasonable size: http://www.palagems.com/php/db_search.php?action=gemdetail&inventory_number=14353 "The greatest experts are only as good as the sum total of what they have seen."

Harriet Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,800 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 7/7/2006	Neither can I. I posted it because I find it a gemmological curiosity due to its size and natural colour. "The greatest experts are only as good as the sum total of what they have seen." (Souren Melikian)

Harriet Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,800 Last Post: 11/19/2009 Member Since: 7/7/2006	Yes. I needed a jewellery fix (South Beach has an unusual aesthetic, shall we say?). So, I went to Bal Harbour and spent some time at Graff. There's someone there who's nuts about gems too. "The greatest experts are only as good as the sum total of what they have seen."

He wears overalls and cycles around with his rooster, "Clucky." "The greatest experts are only as good as the sum total of what they have seen." (Souren Melikian)

LtlFirecracker Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,016 Last Post: 11/23/2009 Member Since: 2/29/2008	I went clubbing my last night there, it was fun. Of course, I knew where to go and got VIP passes ;-). Do you think you will go to Palm Beach? There are a ton of colored stones there, I am sure if you ask, they will have loose ones in the back. My local jeweler only has set stones out, but he has a ton of loose ones sitting in the safe. Speaking of pinks, I still remember this killer 4 ct pink sapphire at Cartier in Palm Beach. It had a little diamond halo around it. The color was to die for.
