Hi all,
I was hoping for a little help navigating the padparadscha world. I recently discovered these sapphires and am so excited about them. I'm also in the market for an engagement ring, so my partner and I have been looking for an oval or pear stone: ideally more on the orangey - peachy side (with just a hint of pink) and a more pale/ less intense color. He just found one (link below) that looks pretty close to what I'm aiming for, but we're both pretty novice when it comes to judging cut and overall quality. I was hoping y'all might be able to educate me a little bit on what you see in these pictures. Any thoughts on the quality of the cut, appropriateness of the price, or whether we should even consider it with the report posted there and not a GIA or AGL report? Has anyone ever heard of or worked with this seller? I'd appreciate any and all input!
