I had a sapphire which was awfully cut with gargantuan sized windows that I just couldnt love. I love the colour and the sentimental value of the stone but thats where the love affair ended. After posting on here I got in touch with Jerry from gemartservices who transformed my unloved sapphire into something I will happily love. Jerry did a fantastic job with what he had to work with.

The sapphire went from 10.1 x 7.9 x 4.35 (3.19cts) to 7.2 x 5.8 x 4.25 mm (2.04cts)

the before pics and after - im sure you will have no trouble guessing which is before and after ;)

Its in the mail on its way back to me in Australia and I cant wait to see it in real!

Wow, what a difference! It has so much life now!
 
Can't believe the difference in saturation & brilliance. I can imagine you'll love that baby forever!

amazing difference on the cut - i love it!!!
 
Huge difference, good move! The color seems to have change too! Is this sapphire from Australia?
 
not as much loss as some recuts and definitely an improved stone.

Wow. It seems that the color changed, too.
 
Wow! A wonderful improvement. So great that you'll be able to enjoy it fully now!
 
Wow, that's a great improvement!
 
Wow what an amazing transformation. Jerry is recutting one of my stone too, not only is he a good cutter, he had answered my questions with patience, a lovely gentleman.
 
Wow, I can't believe it's the same stone!!
 
I cant believe its the same stone either! It does show very light in the first photo but i think the last pic is probably closest to its real life personality - im hoping it will arrive before christmas - fingers crossed!

Im not really sure of its origins - it was in some old jewellery - i do have 2 natural Australian sapphires that my great uncle found and gave to my mother when she was a little girl, im going to set them for her one day in the near future as a surprise but thats another story :)
 
It looks amazing! Jerry did a great job! He's such a nice man too. I bought a spinel from him a while back and he was wonderful to work with.
 
Lots of brilliance and incredibly lively! I can see you setting it and wearing it everyday now. Congrats!
 
Amazing!
 
Maybe I should make this big decision and ask him to recut my alexandrite. It looks amazing, emerald-like from the size at daytime but totally different from the front. If he manages to do it in a way that there is more green (and it has to do with the thickness of the stone I think) it will be the job of the century.

Because of the amazing job he had done with this stone.
 
The stone improved dramatically! It even looks like it has some lavendar in it now!
 
Wow, the difference is AMAZING! It looks fabulous now! Just beautiful!
