Thanks, iIander, Crystal, and Garnet! I fell in love with it instantly because I think the step-cut makes it look a little Art Deco, which I like, and I love blue sapphires, but it was a lot more than I wanted to spend. I also don't think it was a fair price, really. So it was fantastic when I found I could trade in some of my unloved jewelry for it. It didn't cover the whole cost, but it covered 2/3.
