Ritani sapphire color/ quality?

[autumnlala]

Hi all, I''m looking at a Ritani e-ring setting that has sapphire side stones (see pic). Has anyone bought a Ritani setting that had sapphires in it, and could you post pictures? I want to make sure they are nice and bright since it will have to be ordered, likely sight unseen. I''ve heard great things about Ritani''s quality so I presume they are but a picture is worth a million words

Thanks!!

I''ve seen their sapphires, and they are perfectly nice, but on the darker side for MY preference. If you don''t mind darker sapphires, they are fine. They aren''t inky black, but are pretty dark blue.

Sapphires look too dark for my taste - can they source them for you or is it a stock piece?

Hi, I have a ritani sapphire endless ring. The sapphire in my ring is awesome, it is a ceylon color and brilliant cut, so it sparkles like a diamond. It doesn''t look dark at all and I actually think it is the perfect blue color. I purchased this from someone secondhand and I know it was custom made as she requested to have a sapphire instead of a diamond, but I don''t know if Ritani sourced it for her or if she bought the stone and had them set it.

The one''s in your photo look darker than the one I have, but that could be because the background is black. Ritani is pretty reputable so I don''t think they would stick yucky stones into their settings, but you never know.

I am pretty sure you can ask them for specific stones or even provide your own stones.

Good Luck!!

Thanks Butterfly, I had definitely admired your ring as it came up when I searched sapphire + Ritani, it is GORGEOUS! I am a September baby so I adore sapphires, and that one is a real beaut!

I am just wondering if, even if Ritani sourced your beautiful center stone, like many setting manufacturers do, Ritani might skimp a bit in the sidestones.

i am positive you can provide them with the stones. I don''t know who would be a good source. I think Wink Jones has been able to source nice ones for PSers in the past, I would probably give him a call.
