Re: Beautiful Sapphires

[ Edited ]

@steviebI'd love to see the royal turquoise tiara.  Didn't know such a thing existed.

 

How about this one?  It's owned by the City of Espanola, NM, and is worn by their queen.  It was in the news last year when the queen bad mouthed the city and wouldn't give up the crown when they de-throned her.  They eventually got it back.  I'm sure it's Indian made.  It's a far cry from what the royals wear.

I wouldn't mind having a real Kashmir...!!!


Kashmir are mostly gone.  The mines have closed and there might be some floating around, but no sellers,

 

I own something close, a Ceylon Sapphire.  Cornflower blue.  I have a 2 Caret one set in 18K with diamonds.  Most sapphires fall in the middle catagory,  Just a middle blue.  Kashmir color is velvet blue.  Gem shopping network had a 6 caret Kashmir.  Asking price... 2 million.

Anyone else think that dress is horrible?    Not pretty, and not the least bit flattering!    Who is dressing her these days?
