Dear all,
When it comes to sapphires, I’ve always been partial to the non trade ideal color of a lighter and violetish hue, and a fan also of color shifting/changing sapphires. I already have a violet sapphire ring, but thinking of purchasing this antique ring listed for $16400 for my right hand to balance things out:
1) 5.8 carats mixed cut
2) color change light violet to light blue, unheated
3) with side diamonds weighing .50 carats.
4) platinum setting
What do you all think with regards to the price?
My gut feeling is that it is too high (the stone does have some eye visible inclusions on the center). Should I try to negotiate and if so, what should I offer? $8000-9000?
Many thanks as always for your help.
