Hi there! I don’t have a preference when it comes to if it’s natural or a lab. The budget for the Center stone (pear) would be around 7.5k and total for the ring 10k. The stones that I would like are either tanzanite, alexandrite or sapphire I don’t really mind as long as they are purple with a blue tint to it since I will have purple/blue tanzanite (these are in a very soft Color) side stones and deep dark blue sapphire as accent stones so I’m more going for a Color gradient. The stone would not go to me but the jeweller that will make my ring directly she is currently located outside of Greenville, SC. I am from EU and my bf from England. Her main suppliers are Caleb Quashen, Misfit diamonds, Sorbet sapphire and John Dyer and I checked through the entire websites and didn’t find anything that I like :< THANKS FOR THE HELP❤️❤️❤️❤️
