Hello all,
I'm very new to this and would love some of your expertise to help me along my way. Looking for an e-ring in the next couple of months. I'd like a Yellow sapphire in a halo setting with diamond accents. Budget is $2-3k for entire ring.
My questions are as follows:
1. Can I get more for my money by buying loose stones and a setting and having them put together? What are the trade-offs?
2. I've seen the post listing trusted jewelers, but I have no idea where to start looking. What is a good starting point?
3. I've read as much as I can about sapphires, but can somebody help simplify what I can expect to find in my price range.
Thank you so much for your insight,
G
