Look what the Fedex lady just dropped off from Wink! I won this platinum antique setting from ebay in December but it needed to have a new sapphire and a polish. Here is the original thread with before pictures: http://betterthandiamond.com/discussion/ubbthreads.php/topics/691414/1

I asked Wink to have a custom kashmir blue OEC to be cut while the BTD custom window was open. It is a 6.7mm so it would have needed a custom cut anyway. I was nervous after hearing that someone else who got a kasmir blue sapphire cut in an OEC, was unhappy with how it turned out. I believe mine turned out well! (So sorry Flash!!) It is sparkly in the sun and a nice blue in doors.

The side diamonds are full cuts but I am unsure of the grading. They look clean, sparkly and near colorless.

That's beautiful!! But mine was an OMC.

Here is a close up. I am not sure what that weird thing on the bottom of the stone is because it is not like that in person. It must be a reflection.

Oh yeah, that is right. My OMC and OEC that were cut are so similar in cut. Did you OMC look similar at all to my kashmir OEC?

I just love that kashmir color. Looks good in anything.

That is stunningly glowy and vibrant!! Great ebay find too.

I know you told us the polish before, but can you remind me???

It was just old and not shiny any more. It came nice and shiny from Wink.

Oh wow, I lov ethat yummy OEC sapphire!! It's a beautiful ring!!

Thanks ladies! I forgot to say it is a size 6.5 and I believe 2mm wide in the shank. Its really pretty and delicate!

It's gorgeous. Nice to see the before too. The blue is amazing!

There are so many rings i want....
