I don't get it either. VCA has such great, amazing, overwhelming pieces, that are totally our of my range, but Lord, if I had the money, I'd buy them in a heartbeat. *dreaming of that little fee they once had and those watches.... *
I am such a huge fan of Alexandrites, such a pretty ring!
Please tell me, what does recrystallized means?
Its only done in Japan. They use natural alexandrite which has too much inclusions that is not gem quality, make it powder form, take out the inclusions and then recrystallize it back producing a flawless alexandrite. Its a bit different from lab grown in the sense that it still uses natural stone. They also do rubies and sapphires.
wow THAT is interesting! Thank you, I learned something new. And I really like that idea, great idea!
Welcome. Its a nice stone! Changes color depending on the light. I also got a cats eye diamond ring. Which is from same chrysoberyl family as alexandrite.
Beautiful! Please don't ever take it out to direct sunlight. Ultraviolet radiation fades stones over time and so I always remind people that Kunzite is for Night Only!!! There was a huge kunzite in the window of a top Sydney jewellery shop for many years and over time it went from a bright stunning stone to a washed out sad coloured thing.... sad but true. ScarfBloke
hey ladies 
It was my first mothers day in May and my hubby wanted to mark the occasion so I got the below. We sourced the blue sapphire and then i wanted it set in a minimalistic setting.
I got a sapphire as its the birthstone of both my hubby and 10 month old son (both born in September). i got blue specifically as they both have blue eyes. Admittedly, i did want a lighter hue blue than what i got, but i am happy with it. I got a heart shaped sapphire because he is my son and is very much loved. I got it as a pendant so his heart is close to my heart. Also, it is 3ct, which represents the three of us.
Hoping one day to gift it to my son, and hopefully him or his partner enjoy it.
Here she is below.
Thankyou for letting me share xx
