Hi Everyone,
i finally have the setting for my lab pad sapphire from Gene and now am on my quest for a new stone. I’ve been thinking about the blue lab material Gary from Finewater has. I discussed with Gene if he had any similar material but he says his is different. Would love to see what everyone has and in different lighting also. I am afraid to get a darker blue stone, I am planning on a 3-5 carat stone for a ring, set in yellow gold.
Thanks!

I only have one from Gary. FW_Lab_Sapphire_YAG_Ruby_02.jpg

The other 2 in the pics are a YAG and a lab Ruby.

I don't have any other photos at the moment, and would say the Sapphire is a medium blue and true to his photo:

Do you find the sapphire pushes purple at all? In Gary’s handshot, it looks purple to me (something that I really like!) but in the other shots, it looks like the true medium blue.

Sofi, on my iPhone, the sapphire looks blue please below but the first photo looks blue. How does it appear in real life? And can I ask how many carats? I understand the larger ones are darker

As I have already mentioned, the stone IRL is true to Gary's glamour photos, so a medium blue without purple to me.

Thank you, I am still seeing a touch of purple on my end. I will trust your description.
