It's awfully deep for a ring though.... that's the biggest problem I have sometimes with native cuts....

That one was a true cushion, but they call this one an antique, even though it's not very elongated. I was REALLY happy when it was verified that there was no signs of BE treatment because it is VVS.

I got this one to set in a ring (I think) so I may put the other one in a pendant, but I'm not sure... I won't be doing either for a while, but at least I got them verified to be what I told they were (natural with only gentle heat)

Oval Yellow Sapphire; 8.8 x 7 x 4.8 mm; 2.39 Ct.; Clarity - FL
Treatment - Heated; Origin - Ceylon
This one came from Thanex, but the cushion came from a different ebay seller.



I am just afraid the other one would stick up too high off my finger.

Those are so yummy Casey. I would love the cushion as a ring. I just love cushion rings.
