From the late 1920's:  2.70 carat natural sapphire hexagonal step cut 12.71mm x 8.52mm x 23.5mm. Medium tone, very slightly violetish blue, saturation #4, VS1 clarity.  The pave:  90 diamonds, 1.2mm to 1.7mm, total weight 1.60 carats, G color, VS1 clarity.

Circa 1928:  1 carat oval shaped natural sapphire, 6.21mm x 5.0mm x 4.0 mm.  Medium tone, slightly violet-blue, moderate intensity, finish good, I1 clarity.  2 emerald cut diamonds, 33 points each, G color, VS2 clarity.  2 baguettes, 7 points each, H color.

Don't blame me, I didn't select this one:  From the late 1950'S:  51 point round brilliant diamond, J color, SI1 clarity 5.31mm x 5.12mm x 3.17mm, table 61%, depth 61.9%, small culet, thin to medium girdle, polish & symmetry good.  Scroll patterned setting with 8 bead set/bezel set diamonds 24 points total.

The youngin:  (From T & Co) Natural sapphire, 1.35 carats.  I forgot the stats for the halo.

The sapphires, particularly the halo'ed one and the oval look beautiful. I'm also curious about the 1950's fishtail set diamond. Looks somewhat similar to my setting, and I'm wondering if you know who made it?

Thanks again, everyone!  Selkie, I don't know who made the 1950's ring.  The setting is 14 karat white gold and it isn't signed.  I know that it was a fairly common design in the 1950'S through the early 1960'S.
