Yay, I''ve Joined the 2 ct Cushion Sapphire Club

[Catmom]

Well it's almost 2 cts. 1.91 Ceylon Blue cushion with color change from blue to strong purple. No enhancements and no heat, size 7.40 - 6.00 x 4.00. It's gorgeous with tons of blue/purple sparkle and it's being set right now. I should have it by next Wednesday and I can't wait.

wow-beautiful stone

 

[Catmom]

Thanks Everyone! It's so hard to show the true color and capture when it turns from blue to purple. It's being set in the Parade Designs mounting below. Just imagine a sapphire instead of the tsavorite garnet. I have really fallen in love with Parade Designs jewelry and it pretty closely matches my sapphire necklace. It's an early birthday present from my husband. Sorry I don't have better pitctures. I'll post handshots when I get it on Wednesday.

Yes, they have a website. If you google parade designs you will find them. Both my pink and blue sapphire pendants are Parade Designs. I just love them and want one of everything on the website.

It is lovely!

[Catmom]

We purchased it from a jewelry store in Florida. Good luck in your search. I think sapphires are just amazing stones.
