I'm considering selling some of the rings and gems that don't "spark joy". Please contact via loupetroop or reply to thread if interested in more details/pictures.

First up: purchased off eBay as a natural ruby (0.5ct) sz 6.25 in 14kt gold. Ruby color is closer to first picture. Price: $200

Native cut gemstones. Photographed with minimal light:
5.9x5 mm red spinel. I'll have regrets if I sell it for less than I paid. Price: $500
4.8mm 0.63ct sapphire sold as cornflower but IMO a touch too dark. Price: $100

A couple more things will get listed in the next day or two including a vintage sapphire ring and a sapphire or two.
 
Is the 4.8mm sapphire heated? What is the ct weight of the red spinel, and how purplish is it? Amy photos of these two getting in direct sunlight?
 
Sapphire and spinel are on hold.
 
Up next are another 2 sapphires:
0.77 CT Gene sapphire from Madagascar (middle) - $350
4.8mm purchased as unheated sapphire with violet shift (top or right) - $80
Hold cornflower on bottom or left

I want to buy the $80 sapphire and want to ask whether the $350 Gene sapphire is also unheated. If so, I would buy that one as well.

I sent you a message via LoupeTroop this morning. I used the listing you posted for the red spinel and other sapphire. Still have not gotten a response back from you.

My apologies @voce , after looking through my paperwork, it seems I don't have any firm notes on the heated or unheated state of Gene's sapphire. I believe I slightly recall that there was a small discount on the stone as Gene was unsure.
 
I spent some time improving my lackluster photography.

Up for grabs is the sapphire ring I grabbed preloved:

Art Deco William Drummond (Royal Jeweler) Ceylon Sapphire Ring. Size 6.25. 4.5mm sapphire which is a nice, bright (my ideal cornflower) blue. Small chip on the edge of the sapphire. Price $265 (F&F or buyer pays fees).

The spinel and cornflower sapphire are SOLD.

Do you have a side view and any more specs regarding the diamond on this lovely ring? Thanks :)!
 
@Kalliope Here are some extra shots.

I originally bought this ring for the setting, hoping to put the cornflower sapphire in there, but once I purchased it, I didn't see the two meshing well and I liked the ring on its own. I didn't pay attention or note the diamond specs for that reason, but it looks fairly white and eye clean.
