Opening this thread to track the journey of my new sapphire ring to come...... :cool2:

Here's the stone I just bought (after taking a very very very deep breath for unheated stone pricing).

I plan to set it as a solitaire ring without any diamonds.

At the moment I saw it, I keep hearing it's voice ... "TAKE ME TAKE ME TAKE ME". And I just couldn't resist.

Pretty Asymmetric to my eye but I know that the jeweler will fix it with the setting. Still being discussed but the whole end-to-end journey will be posted here :lol:

See my previous post for the idea on how this thread is going to look like. I'm so exciting... :dance::dance::dance:

Gemstone Specs
  • 2.72ct

Many thanks for the compliments guys. Please join me in building this ring :mrgreen2::mrgreen2::mrgreen2:

A quick question here. Since color is really important, will it make the stone look darker if I go with bezel setting?

Spoken to the jeweler and we decided to modify my current sapphire ring (see its story in this thread) by replacing the center stone with this one.

Here’s how the ring looks like:

Oh I LOVE this set as a simple solitaire! Though I'm sorry to hear about the setting mishap! What a gorgeous and special gem you have! I could get lost in that blue....
