Hello! DH has decided he'd like to buy me a sapphire necklace for our first wedding anniversary. I'll likely go with a full or half bezel setting, but am having a hard time deciding on a sapphire. Yesterday we went to the local jeweler where we bought our wedding rings, and they had 5 stones brought in for us. Our favorite was a beautiful, eye clean, royal blue 1.10 ct stone for ~ $3600 (sorry I don't have pics or a measurement, but I will say it's definitely a top of the line stone). This morning I searched through the vendor list provided in this forum for similar color/weight/clarity stones, and there seems to be a ton a variation. My top contenders are the following:
From Africa Gems:

https://gemfix.com/gems/sapphire-blue-11-1198
https://gemfix.com/gems/sapphire-blue-11-1110
I think just based on pictures, videos and description, that last ones under Africa Gems and Gem Fix are the two I'm leaning toward the most. Any feedback or thoughts would be much appreciated.
Thank you!
