Star Sapphire

Because azriona asked if they really exist, I thought I'd post a picture of a polished uncut star sapphire, and the ring I based Rose's wedding ring off of in You're What?  as well.

That's really pretty. I want one. Sapphire is my birthstone and one of my favorite gems. Lucky Rose

That is a pretty stone. I've never seen one before.

Lol, I was wondering why there was so much specific chemistry terminology in that chapter! Because it actually exists. XD It's very pretty!

I've always liked star sapphires, and I love how thorough you are!

Ooo, that's awesome! I'm a sucker for unusual gemstones! *waits patiently for her Nine with star sapphire ring to show up on her doorstep* :D What? Is that slightly unrealistic? Wellllll, okay then, he doesn't have to bring me the ring... :P ;)

That really is gorgeous and I'm so glad you posted pics so we can see what a beauty that really is! *hugs!* ♥♥♥!!!

I love star sapphires! The first ring that my father ever bought my mother was a star sapphire. It was always my favourite of hers, and she gifted me with that ring for my 20th birthday (Blimey! Have I really had that ring just a few months shy of 8 years?!).

Of course, I wouldn't mind getting another one, especially if it meant I got Nine too. ;0)

I have a black star sapphire ring. They're so pretty to look at.

They are one of the most beautiful stones in the world, and I have to say I prefer them over diamonds (though I'm a sucker for all things blue). My grandmother had one that she gave to me to wear with my sapphire prom dress way back...a lot of years ago. It's my favourite ring!

Oh, I absolutely love star sapphires. My favorite ring is a woman's replica of my dad's college class ring (it was my mom's first engagement ring - a promise ring, I guess). And the stone in that ring is a gorgeous star sapphire.

Of course, sapphire is also my birthstone, so I'm partial to begin with.
