Star Sapphire...THis thing was huge. It said it was a man''s cuff...personally i dont think a man would wear it but the size would too big for any woman''s arm I know.

 

[Icce]

This or the ruby ring is what I thought my FI should get me as a suveinor as it was only around 8cts (that is really small in this collection where most stuff was in the 100s ct) but he got me a stuffed toy beaver istead hahah

 

[icekid]

In awe... I''d love to see a collection like this in person, someday!

 

[Icce]

Padparadscha. Though the pictures may make these seem small, they are no where near a few carats...they are big. The colour was different in person..I couldn''t capture it.

 

[Icce]

All different colours of Sapphires

 

[Icce]

This sapphire was like half the size of my fist or near to that. Very nice blue. Much better in person

 

[D&T]

Fun exhibit, one day I would love to check out something like this

 

[Icce]

Ceylon yellow Sappire. The necklace is way way to bulky but hey the sapphire is as big as my fist. Must nicer yellow in person still a darker than a bright highlighter yellow.

Not sure what made someone make this out of RUBIES but they did. Mephistos head. Personally I think a ring for us all would be better use next picture this was wrong one oops

 

[Icce]

here from the post aboves mistake

 

[Icce]

Now this is a better use for a ruby. around 10cts if I remember right so not to big. Much much redder in real life. Alot of colours looked so much better than on my camera. Greens all went weird. Reds turned more pink etc. Had to take them through glass etc

 

[that_someone_special]

I have never seen gems so big before!

 

[Icce]

Rubies. Larger than you usually see in RL..or at least than I see

 

[Icce]

Rubies. Very sparkly in real life cause so many smaller ones together
