    Sapphires are heavier than diamonds so it could be 5-10ct. as it is very big and heavier than a dia of this size . If I were so lucky to own it I would have the sapphire off to a skilled stone cutter for re crowning so it would look brand new . ( retired jeweller) .

    The dark secret of the AR is the descions made following an appraisal. Do they keep it or sell it is always at the top of the list. If they keep it, can they afford the insurance. If they sell, is part of their family going to be missed? What is the value? Who would be the recipient of the sale? Before the appraisal, blissfully unaware. After, regret and problems.
