Unfortunately the few B&Ms I went into only sold mounted stones......which meant I couldn''t get a look at the stones properly. They were willing to sell me the stones separately but the stones were dull and had windows.
I looked at a 5.21ct, (a little too big for my budget), blue sapphire from Myanmar. Certified by Gubelin gemlab in Switzerland. Not sure if that is a reputable lab for grading. Nobody else seemed to offer any certs except inhouse.
The 5.21 ct was a Modified brillant cut measuring 11.22 x 9.51 x 5.21mm. This was the best in terms of color out of the lot.
The cut was nowhere exciting as the color change sapphire richard wise has on his site.
I will make an appointment with more reputable dealers of gems here in singapore to get a better. I dont'' hold much hope in finding anything good here though
