A few hand shots. I took these on from my phone. They seem to come out better.

I think your ring is gorgeous. The stone is perfection, IMO. And the setting is a perfect fit. Looks really good on your finger. I am glad you decided to keep it but if you do tire of it, I think it would sell quickly.

The color is one of the nicest pads I have seen.

Wow, just came across this thread. What a great deal. I am super jealous! Have to admit I was hoping that you were going to decide to sell it :D (I have a September baby girl and have been looking for a blue sapphire for her, but would have happily taken this beauty instead.) Congrats!

My gosh, Dori, I think your ring is stunning! The stone is amazing, and I am a big fan of Leon's settings. Perfect combination. I hope you are enjoying it. It is definitely a WOW in my book and a wonderful deal to boot.

I hope you love your ring. I don't post much, but I really did not care for comments I read that seemed to veer towards 'caveat emptor/buyer beware..' And almost seemed to attempt to push this buyer into thinking she got a deal and should be thankful. I should disclose that I am an attorney, but having said that- I do not practice in this area, but I know there are many, many consumer protection laws out there and should you still be questioning...well better do something now than later.

All the best,

Alli

Buying jewelry online with zero return policy? not something I would ever do. I think your ring is beautiful btw. But you are the one who has to like it.

For those who maybe didn't quite understand it or are late to the game and didn't read all the posts here (and its been said in the thread) Dori bought the ring after Leon told her there was no return policy, not before. That was cleared up up-thread.

No one here advocates a person buy without a return policy this is a consumer board after all! But yeah, it still happens because jewelry in general are emotional purchases.

In the end it worked out for Dori. The ring is beautiful, she got a really good deal on it, she enjoys it, and the rest, well, its a lesson for everyone.

"Dreamy" is a good description. I love the proportion of the diamonds to the sapphire; they are big enough to notice and make it so elegant, but without taking attention away from the lovely padparadscha.
