Remote buying is so scary. Just pulled the trigger on an opalescent sapphire from an Etsy vendor.
I have been searching for a purplish-pink opalescent sapphire with a good amount of milk in it, but boy was it hard. I found that a lot of vendor pictures didn't match up with the additional videos I requested.
Now, I do own an opalescent sapphire already, but there is a sizeable black inclusion that I grew to dislike over the months of owning the ring, so I wanted to find one with similar colours but without the black inclusion.
I stumbled across this vendor the other day and finally pulled the trigger. A little bit worried because it doesn't seem like they usually trade in gemstones specifically. I have a one week window to return the stone after purchase, so I'm not completely out-of-pocket.
What do you guys think? I'm a bit giddy with excitement!
Here's my current ring for reference.
