Pink sapphires

[NOYFB]

Since I''ve recently acquired a new (bigger) stone as an e-ring, I''m thinking of replacing the old stone in my original e-ring (which I now wear as a RHR) with an emerald shaped pink sapphire. I searched the forums earlier and saw a bunch of links, but was wondering if anyone had any more ideas of where to purchase a good .50-1.0 ct. pink sapphire. A lot of the ones I am seeing are super huge and I prefer something a little more understated, so as not to take away from my new e-ring stone!

I found this site and some of these look promising...

Thoughts? Ideas?

Lil,

On 1k/carat you should be able to get an untreated stone under one carat.

Pink sapphire in emerald shape is very sensitive to inclusions and to windows.
