LuvThatBling Cut Rock Total Posts: 108 Last Post: 6/26/2009 Member Since: 2/6/2006	Sotheby's often has some amazing jewelry but that one does nothing for me. I wouldn't even spend 7Gs on it. To each his own shrugs. Now, I have seen some huge yellow diamonds go through Sotheby's that I would LOVEEEE to own if I were rich. I tried on a 5 or 6 ct. yellow diamond at a local store on my last visit. WOW. It cost almost as much as my house, so I'd have to live outdoors, but that warm yellow would keep me mighty toasty.

RockDoc Ideal Rock Total Posts: 2,509 Last Post: 6/17/2007 Member Since: 8/16/2000	The Purple Pink might not be able to be recut, depends where the color is in the stone. The sapphirre defnately needs recutting. Look at the 'window' in the center of it. But saphs are even more apt to lose color when recut sometimes. I am commenting based on the appearance in the photo, assuming it is fairly accurate to how the stone looks. Rockdoc Bill Leiberum 1948-2007 Thanks for everything and Rest In Peace,Bill.
