Listing on DB: http://diamondbistro.com/category/219/Colored-Center-Stone/listings/23429/Jeff-White-Sapphire-Asscher!-3stone-PD-trellis!.html

In Gypsy's words, I am a wearer, not a collector, and I feel sad that this ring doesn't get worn as often as it should. I want it to go to a new adoptive home where it will be worn all the time as it should be. :))

This is a beautiful 2.15 carat precision cut purple Ceylon sapphire from the fabulous Jeff White (http://www.whitesgems.com/) in a palladium setting with approximately .50 carats of baguette diamonds on the sides in a trellis setting (size 5.75).

If you want something from Jeff White right now, you either need to get lucky on his website, or have him custom cut something for you, as his waiting list is currently quite long. Instant gratification here!

Price: $2100 OBO. Includes a non-inflated insurance appraisal from Richard Wise (this is good as you won't pay inflated insurance fees should you want to insure the ring).

I get SO many compliments when I wear this ring--it's such a unique color and cut, that everyone always thinks it is a blue diamond. Truly stunning in person.

Jeff's stones are perfectly cut to best show off the color of the stone, and this particular one is set in a three stone trellis ring made by Unique Settings of New York, with two diamond sidestones. My jeweler also did some nicely pointed little prongs on the ring. The setting is palladium. It does have some light patina, which can be polished, but please be aware of that. Mostly noticeable on the bottom of the shank. Gorgeous!

The ring comes with an appraisal from the master Richard Wise (http://www.rwwise.com/bio.html) with details on the saturation, etc. of the stone.

Between the setting and stone I paid over $2800 for this ring.

Reasonable offers will be considered, but I am on the fence about selling this in the first place, so I won't entertain lowball offers.

Free shipping within the US and I WILL ship internationally for an additional fee.

Thank you!

Paypal accepted and I will also provide a 2% discount if you prefer to pay through USPS money order by passing my paypal fee savings on to you.

Perfect blue!
Love it!

Dani, we have similar tastes.... I got the Danielle band from WF as my wedding band :) and also happen to love this sapphire ring. But don't worry, I don't have the funds ;( so I won't be competition for you... Hope your talk with hubby goes well!

Neatfreak, this is the most reasonably priced ring I've seen in a long time. And it's beautiful. Let's just say if we were back in time a couple of years, I would have made it my engagement ring, without hesitation.

He's not even here, lol! I would love to have it, but you need to do what is best for you, and it. I'll pounce on him when he gets home though, lol!

Aw, too funny! I hope you love your wedding band as much as I love mine. :D

This ring.... is possibly my favorite ring off of PS. EVER. I'm with you, I would not have hesitated to make this my engagement ring. :love:

And the stinking thing is so beautiful in person too. Sigh... I do wish I didn't have such a prominent asscher ring already.
Whoever gets it is going to be an extremely happy camper. :wavey:

I know Dani I know. It needs to go to a home that will actually WEAR it all the time. It was meant to be worn and shown off everyday! :))

I'd love it to go to a PS friend... :devil:

Re: Jeff White Ceylon Sapphire Asscher! 3stone PD trellis ri

Hehe, I'm definitely tempted as I am notably without an asscher at the moment, though I probably won't know budget wise for a bit since I already have a few things on my to do list.

If it's still there in a few days though, I may need to drop you a line.

Re: Jeff White Ceylon Sapphire Asscher! 3stone PD trellis ri

Hello everyone! I've been lurking on this site for a while to get idea's for an upgrade of my wedding set. I saw the original thread on this ring and Gasped in awe! I LOVE IT! I know others have expressed interest...so if it isn't taken, I will throw my hat in the ring. Only concern, is it easily resizeable? I wear a 7.5.

Hi and welcome! I have received many inquires, but no full price offers yet. I think it would be resizable to a 7.5 without a problem but it would be worthwhile to ask your jeweler first. I am not an expert.

Re: Jeff White Ceylon Sapphire Asscher! 3stone PD trellis ri

Thanks for the reply Neatfreak. I revisited the orginal threads & am now thoroughly obessed with this ring! Love the pic's of the ring in the snow, I'm a Chicago girl & we have our heat on today...brrrr. I will visit my local jeweler tomorrow to inquire about resizing palladium. I've never had a pallidium ring so time to read up on that.

My wedding set is palladium, and I have been pretty happy with it. 8)

Oh, is the sapphire heated or otherwise treated according to the evaluation given by R. Wise?

Thanks!

NF, I'm actually sad that you're selling this ring because I remember how happy you were when you first got it. I love it so much and I wish I could buy it. I hope it goes to a good home!

It certainly is a beautiful ring. Even more beautiful in your pictures on here, IMO.

Hey MTG!

RW Wise didn't evaluate that--so honestly, I don't know. To be safe, I would assume it is heated, but it may not be, I just don't know.

Jeff never told me when I bought it and I never asked since it was so pretty and so many people wanted it I just snapped it up!

Thanks for your interest!!

Don't be sad Zoe! I am choosing to sell it, I don't NEED to sell it. Trust me, happy sale not a fire sale! :))

Oh I know you want to sell it and you don't need to, but it still makes me sad. Maybe I'm mostly sad because I can't buy it right now. ;( I love, love, love that stone.
