Hello Everyone!
I'm new to this site, Although I've been a lurker here for a few years (;
I originally posted this in the Antique/Vintage section, but also would love
the opinions of you lovely colored-gemstone people!
I am graduating college soon and will also be getting engaged.
My mother has had this ring for as long as I can remember, and I've always admired it.
Because so, she has decided to give it to me as a graduation gift. (So kind!)
Even if its not worth much its sentimental value is enormous to me and I just adore the ring.
It's never been looked at by a trained eye, nor has it ever been evaluated or appraised.
I'm still deciding if I want to use it as my engagement ring, although I'm in love with it, It's still a tough decision
as I will be wearing it for the rest of my life!
I was hoping that the more experienced PSers could give me their honest opinion on the sapphire, it's quality and the
ring as a whole.
Its set in platinum and has little diamond accents surrounding the sapphire in an art deco type setting.
Any opinions on the possible age of the piece or the name of the style of this type of ring is also welcomed (:
I'm not for sure that its a genuine sapphire, but I'm leaning towards yes as there is what seems to be color zoning going on. Also, which is better for colored stones, AGL or GIA?
Hopefully the pictures attached properly!
All opinions/advice/information is welcome and highly appreciated! (:
