I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving. This $14,000 Ring was designed in 2022 and made for a Gia certified 7ct no heat natural Blue Sapphire. Then I made another for a friend with a Purplish Red Garnet 5.89Ct set with European cut Diamonds and set in 95% Platinum that is engraved by hand. A natural Ruby this size with papers will cost about $30,000-$40,000. There are Garnets that have the Gemmy Red look of a Ruby without the price. This type of Garnet is not easy to find. In fact I recently had one that both the Gem Lab director and I thought had a 50-50 chance of being a no heat Ruby. It had a silk in it that looked like Ruby inclusions. The refractive index test showed it was a Garnet. I ended up Gia certifying the Stone and gave it as a gift to my Sister. If you would like to have this Ring made with a Gemmy Purplish Red Garnet, I will make you one upon request and finding the right Stone. Call Daniel at 559-288-5000
