Finally Able to Capture the Color Change

[Catmom]

It''s sunny here today so I was finally able to capture a little bit of the color change in my cushion sapphire. It''s amazing how the color really changes depending upon the light. I hope you can tell at least a little bit from these pictures.

Here is what the stone looks like in normal inside lighting. It''s a pretty strong blue with lighter blue flashes.

Here it is in bright sunlight. It's an icy lavender blue.........

Here it is in muted outdoor light. It''s an icy blue color........

Wow I just LOVE that stone--in all of its colors! You HAVE to wear it to the May GTG so I can see it in person!

HI:

Hmmm, Catmom, I have a feeling I need to see this ring in person to get a full sense of the color change. Please send it to me directly, so I can evaluate the same, and I''ll have it back to you after Easter.........sometime.

hehhehheh

It''s wonderful regardless of what light in which you show it!!!!

cheers--Sharon

Wow Catmom! Absolutely Stunning! I am beginning to like colored stones even more so than diamonds. Is that even possible??? LOL!

 

[Catmom]

Thanks everyone!!!

DJ, I can''t wait for May. I really want to find that vendor again with the stacker eternity rings. I want a pink one and maybe a green if they have it and yes, I''ll wear my ring!

canuk-gal, you know I was just going to pop it in the mail for you when I realized that we don''t have mail service here. I''m so sorry................

Oooh, Catmom those pics really do capture the different colors your stone exhibits. So pretty!!!

 

[Catmom]

Thanks Sundial and Kaleigh!!! It''s a dangerous stone and I''m going to get myself in trouble staring at it so much.

Hi Catmom! I keep returning to this thread, just to admire your ring and the color of your sapphire. I LOVE the color! May I ask where you got such a beautiful sapphire and setting?

 

[Ellen]

How cool! That stone is just GORGEOUS.

Very nice Michelle! Capturing color change with a camera can be a tall task. Regardless, that is one incredible stone!

What a gorgeous stone & ring. should you ever tire of it, I''d be more than happy to take it off your hands! LOL.

Enjoy...now I must go wipe the drool off my keyboard.

Catmom, that is such a BEAUTIFUL ring!!!!!

 

[Catmom]

Thanks so much for all the compliments on my ring! I''m so glad you like it as much as I do. Zoebartlett, I got the stone and setting from a jewelry store in Florida. The setting is a Parade Designs setting and this particular store carries many of their pieces.

Thanks, Sophie, I''m staring at it right now in a very low light and it''s glowing deep purple. Almost looks like an amethyst. I love this stone!

Thanks NYCsparkle and Firegoddess!
