You all will have to excuse me. As I get to know it, it just amazes me more and more.

Here it is while I’m sitting on the sofa catching the light from the window behind me. I did slow motion but the video is only a minute long.

Wait, hold on... that video is weird lol. It focuses on my pinky finger which has no ring on it? Lol

Lol. I figure I’m the biggest bore on the planet! It just catches my eye in different lighting and I can’t get over how gorgeous it is!

I’m loving every second of it. It’s such an amazing ring. I’m captivated by the workmanship of the trellis and how the diamonds and sapphire play with each other. To me, it’s a 10/10

 

[whitewave]

Very pretty. Congratulations

Thank you!!!

@Wewechew thanks, the fire and the color interplay is incredible.

@Luce thank you!

@rcjtraveler yes, I agree lol. The color in direct sun light is perfect, but I’m also loving the color in indirect sunlight— such a rich royal blue.

Hi @whitewave

I was wondering if you were able to tell me the diameters of your stones, and also your finger size? I'm having a sapphire + diamonds 3 stone made in the new year and I suspect the proportions are very similar. My stones are 2 x 5.5mm for the sides, and 7.4mm in the center.

How do they compare to yours? Mine will be going on a size 7.5 finger.

I'm hoping mine looks half as good as yours! Thanks Whitewave!!

Ok, it’s going to take a minute to find it all. It’s my right hand, so it’s size 8.25 ring and it’s 2.5mm wide.

Sapphire: 6.73 x 5.98 (oval)

I’ll get the paperwork in a minute.,, cuppa coffee

I’m sorry @mrs-b

I’m painting and remodeling my closet and my little digital documents safe is super unhappy for some reason and won’t open.

The good news is, CBIs are so uniform, go find a .56 and a .57 (its nearly a .5 and see what their measurements are.

Headed back to the other house soon, so DH will have to worry about the safe.

@whitewave -

Thanks so much! This gives me at least *some* idea of how it will look.

When looking at your photos taken from certain angles, I had thought your sapphire was an oval. But then it seemed more round, because the light return from it is so striking you almost can't make out the shape! It's a stunning, stunning stone, and a gorgeous ring!

ETA We were typing at the same time. The information you've already given me is more than enough - thank you!

I’m glad I decided heat/no heat wasn’t important for me because I love love love this sapphire so much!! It is definitely the one for me.
