Its beautiful! I have a similar shape sapphire, almost the same size and I have it set in platinum with a 1/4 princess diamond on each side.

I think traps would work well too. I think that stone is screaming for a white metal with side diamonds :)

And CONGRATS on being sober for 5 years. That is a HUGE accomplishment. Wear that stone proudly. You have earned it. And big thumbs up to your husband for honoring that accomplishment!

Congratulations! That is a huge deal and you should be VERY proud of yourself! That sapphire has a beautiful color. What about some diamond half moons? or bullets?

GORGEOUS! Congrats!!!

It looks "cushiony" to me ... which makes me think of pear sides ... traps seem so "angular" for a scrumptiously soft silhouette like this.. hmmmmm.


ETA: AIIIGHHH!!!! WHAT ABOUT A "POKEY SPECIAL"??????

Traps would be a nice contrast to that cut.

This Leon Came to Mind:

I also think half moons might be nice. Or maybe pears. Maybe a photo-shop genius could help.

Thanks for appreciating my sobriety!! I'm glad my husband regognizes the accomplishment as well - considering he never new me before sobriety (THANK GOD!) LOl, or we would have never met! I quit when I was 25 and pretty much left the bar scene - what's single girl to do if there's no bar to meet guys at?

MATCH.COM!! We met on the internet!

The stone is indeed a cushion!! oooooh! That leon -s REALLY NICE!!! I love the way it looks from the top!!

Oh, half moons - that's an idea too!!

Wow -- what a GORGEOUS stone! I think it will look stunning no matter how you set it, but I do love the idea of traps on the side.

If not that, then Pokey Special, all the way! Maybe one of our talented Photoshoppers can put your sapphire into this pic.

Congrats on your sobriety and the gorgeous rock! You have to get a leon and vote is to pair it with bullets or traps.

Congratulations, that is really an accomplishment to be proud of! What a beautiful present, scrumptious color. I think traps or baguettes would be very pretty especially since your ring already has pave and a halo, I would keep it simple. Claw prongs from leon would always be nice.

Congrats on your achievement!

I love the one bling posted, the version of the tsavorite, and the halo by Leon, though you said you have one already...
