My boyfriend proposed last night in the most romantic way and I finally got to see the ring that we had been working on for months!
Thank you so much to everyone here who comes and shares their knowledge on coloured stones.. we learned so so much. I knew next to nothing about gemstones and I read everything I could find on here and went from wanting a green sapphire to a blue sapphire to finally buying a light blue one from Gene at Precision Gem and getting it set by a very talented local jeweler. Without these forums I would have had no clue! Even tracking down a good jeweler and knowing what to look for was all due to what I learned here.
Here's the ring! The stone is really sparkly and it changes how it looks depending on the lighting. In some lights it's darker and filled with bright blue sparkles, in other lights its a bright denim blue with flashes of white. I cannot stop staring at it
