A personal thank you is in order to Sam Arnstein and the entire staff at The Natural Sapphire Company for making the most beautiful ring I have ever seen. I was in search for a peach/pink stone to give to my fiance to cement our engagement.

She loved the color of Morganites but I was not sold on going that route for various reasons so I decided to research on precious stones. I moved forward with finding a harder, higher quality, incredibly cut stone that we would both love for a lifetime. I came across this in a 2.11 ct padparadscha sapphire on the NSC site. "THIS IS THE ONE!" Once I saw the stone I immediately reserved it.

The next steps of the process, I had the pleasure of working with Sam Arnstein and the NSC team to render images of the stone in 2 different settings as well as ordering a wax mold of the chosen setting.

The NSC team was able to customize one of there classic 4 prong settings to change the prong settings to a "baby claw" prong to further accentuate the radiant cut of the sapphire. So much attention to detail to deliver what I had in my head. What resulted was an amazing engagement ring encased in a very heavy high quality case. Included was a professional folder that includes so much detailed information about the stones dimensions, origin and appraisal statement that added to the overall experience and final product.

Cheers and props to Sam and the NSC.

After finding the perfect stone and setting on their website I called Lauren at the Natural Sapphire Company and explained I had a super short deadline to receive the ring before our big trip (horrible planning on my part) to the Cook More

Creating the product online was simple. Ordering it was easy. A company rep communicated with me every step of the way and when the product arrived, it was simply amazing. Quality was impeccable and was one of the most beautiful pieces of jewelry I'd ever seen. My wife absolutely adores it. Will be using them again.

My experience with NSC could not have been better. Their website is amazing and allows you to examine every stone and setting in detail before purchase. Erika's customer service was top-notch and the quality of the finished ring surpassed our (very high) expectations. Highly recommend!

I had a great experience with Lauren at The Natural Sapphire Company. I needed a lot of guidance because I was interested in a sapphire ring recommended by a Vedic Astrologer. Lauren was familiar with the specifics and helped walk me through the design process. I just received the ring and it's beautiful! I don't know how their prices compares to other companies because I didn't do any comparisons. But, I would definitely recommend them.

The Natural Sapphire company made a guy that had no clue about jewellery or stones or cuts feel like i was being taken care of! Their easy to use design your own ring & ring sizing scale made me feel confident that i was making the right choice.
Lauren was a tremendous help in sending through beautiful renderings of what i was keen on and the level of service i received were second to none.

If you are a guy like me looking to get that special someone their engagement ring, have no fear as The Natural Sapphire Company will put your mind at ease.
Ps they supply certificates of their stones on purchase which was added peace of mind

My experience with the natural sapphire company was excellent all around!! Their website was very helpful and I was able to find a stone that matched exactly what I was looking for. Then when I received the stone I was thrilled that it looked just as good in person as it did online. Throughout the whole process, Lauren was invaluable with her help and service. If I knew someone was in the market for sapphire stones/rings, I would eagerly send them NSC s way!!

Tldr: Highly recommend the NSC. You won't find better quality sapphires with trustworthy reports, and their CS is great.

Pro tip: Wait for holiday sales / Don't be so hasty to buy, they might offer you a discount.

Pros:
- Beautiful gems with detailed, authentic reports.
- Awesome CS that goes above and beyond. Lauren was incredibly helpful and patient, and I'm so appreciative she gave me a sale refund for buying a ring shortly before their store sale went up.

Cons:
- Lacks after purchase value others offer. E.g. Hassle-free returns, free lifetime repairs, credit upgrades, etc.
- Not as many ring setting choices, although they offer to make ones from other sites (seems risky though?)

Website UI feedback:
- No quick visual tools (like Brilliant Earth's or James Allen's mobile try-on that uses a picture of your hand to see rings at eye level).
- Wish they'd add more filter options, e.g. color intensity & gem width (especially!), eye clarity, a customizable price range, and ring options like peek-a-boo.

The Natural Sapphire Company is highly professional and I can only recommend them. Their craftmanship is of the highest order and the customer service was always excellent. I was advised by Lauren and I can truly say that if you have her as your advisor you are in safe and excellent hands. She , too, gets five stars from me and my fiancee. Lauren: *****
Thank you so, so much !

Overall a Good Experience. Site is easy to navigate with plenty of options to chose from. I was interested in purchasing a Sapphire (my birthstone) for my 55 birthday. I found an Emerald Cut Sapphire a little over 1ct. I had a Pendant made. Its
lovely - I dint see an option of attaching images ;-( Be advised that the pics on the website & images that NSC will send you are larger than real life stone itself. However, Sam was very helpful & patient as I ended up upgrading the carat weight of my Blue No Heat/Enhancement Sapphire. And glad I did as Sam agreed that the smaller stone looked Dainty - at 55 I wasn t going for Dainty. Additionally, my docs from NSC for the Sapohire i purchased was missing measurements on 1 of the 3D sheets. I made NSC aware; and they without question mailed me the updated corrected 3D page . I would recommend NSC. I wish I could have purchased in person to actually see the variety of Sapphire stones in real time & actual size. But, overall the experience was good and no regrets. Trustworthy company to do business with online. Thanks Sam!

This was an excellent experience in every way. It was fun shopping for the sapphire for a replacement wedding band - so many to choose from, in a great range of sizes, shapes and costs. I loved looking at the 3D graphic model of each stone where you could really examine each facet. I also loved the free 3D renderings of the two rings I was considering. The wax casting of my favorite really assured me that it was right choice.
Throughout the process Lauren Kelly-Nelson was so helpful! She was knowledgeable, professional, personable and not at all pushy. I really felt like I had a friend helping me. When I had waited too long to make a decision, and the sapphire I had chosen was sold in the meantime, Lauren suggested three alternate stones of equal quality and cost. I could have used any of them and been delighted. Ordering everything was so easy, and the new ring came within two weeks, as promised, in a beautiful box, with helpful documentation for the stone. I am thrilled with my ring, and I highly recommend Lauren and The Natural Sapphire Company!

The Natural Sapphire Company provides a total solution to help you delect the right jewellery for the occasion.

I was seeking an engagement ring for my future fiancee and started looking around for Sapphire rings. I live in Australia so had to communicate online or over the phone.

What drew me to the NSC website was that it is a truly functional online shop that is easy to use and navigate. They give you full details of the stones up front including costs, clarity, origin, etc.. along with great photos and 3D models. Any certification is also available to review.

Once I had settled on a stone I contacted the company to get a 3D rendering made up with a ring setting. This allowed me to see what the final product would look like. My contact point was Caitlyn.

Caitlyn and I corresponded via email for many months as I investigated my options, different stones and settings. She even offered to send me the stone in Australia to see before buying.

I ended up paying to have the stone professionaly appraised locally in New York instead of shipping to Australia. Caitlyn dropped off and picked up the stone and made it a smooth process.

When I finally decided on a stone and setting, Caitlyn processed payment and had it made and shipped to my door within a fortnight.

Throughout the whole process I never felt pressured to buy and Caitlyn was very patient with me and helped me through the whole process.

Thanks again to Caitlyn and the team at NSC! Would highly recommend seeking these guys out for your jewellery needs.

We were really nervous when we showed up with how well done the offices were, but Lauren was wonderful. She anticipated exactly what we were looking for and had a full array of gems to show. On top of that, she was incredibly welcoming and really put us at ease. I can't recommend this establishment enough.

I cannot thank Mary enough for helping me. She answered all of my questions, made sure the ring was perfect, and got it to me in time. This was as good of an experience as I could have possibly asked for.

Working with Lauren and the Natural Sapphire Company was a pleasant experience from start to finish. Lauren went out of her way to ensure I was happy with the custom setting I wanted and the sapphire color I was searching for. The completed ring is so beautiful, and the fact it was made to order makes it even more special.

Would definitely recommend the Natural Sapphire Company and hope to be able to order from them again.

I had such an amazing experience with The Natural Sapphire Company! Sam was so great and easy to work with, and he worked hard to create a beautiful custom ring for me. I got an emerald shaped sapphire with a diamond cushion halo and pave. This ring was given to me for college graduation, and The Natural Sapphire Company engraved my school's initials and my graduation date on the inside of the band. That extra touch made it so special. The sapphire is absolutely beautiful.

I purchased the most beautiful Sapphires from Michael and several years later, I asked for him to sell one that I had made into a gorgeous ring on consignment for me as well.
He was incredibly professional, handled everything personally, kept me updated..and made it happen within weeks. Incredible customer service even years after the original sale. I would highly recommend Michael Arnstein and The Natural Sapphire Company.
Thanks again Michael.

From start to finish I cannot fault The Natural Sapphire Company.
NSC go over and above to help you with what you are looking for, giving advice, images and options to make the purchase a pleasurable one. I have used NSC twice now and on both occasions the service and professionalism is second to none. For my recent purchase , I had the pleasure of dealing with Sam Arnstein. Nothing was a problem for Sam and I was updated frequently on email with the progress. When the pendant was finished, it was shipped from US to UK within 3 days. Most importantly the pendant is beautiful and we will definitely use NSC again. So if anyone is looking for an impeccable service, I highly suggest you give the Natural Sapphire Company a try. You won't be disappointed.

I worked with Sam to make the perfect anniversary ring for me. He was kind and helpful through the entire process. I was able to make payments on the ring which really helped me because I would not have been able to purchase it up front. The process to choose a ring and a stone was also very simple and they send you a 3d scan of what your choice will look like. If I need any other custom made jewelry, I would definitely choose this company.
I also did speak to SuSu a few times and she was also very helpful.

I stumbled upon The Natural Sapphire Company's website and immediately fell in love; How do you not when everything is so sparkly!? Still, I was hesitant about ordering jewelry from an online company...I couldn't be more pleased though! I ended up buying a necklace for my mom and a right hand ring for myself. From start to finish everything was flawless, and I had a fabulous experience working with Lauren! I would definitely recommend working with this company, and will definitely be back!

Michael made time for me at a late hour to take a look at a few of his stock. I previously made a purchase and wanted to see if there was something else I wanted, and if I wanted to replace one of the items with something else. Michael patiently answered my questions and explained/showed me some things about sapphires I didn't previously know. It was very interesting. He opened a couple boxes full of sapphires and I found one I really liked. But I decided to keep what I have and kept that sapphire on my wishlist. Would visit again some time when I have the funds for more sapphires.

I was looking for an oval-shaped, blue sapphire, untreated and found the Natural Sapphire Company online. My luck, They have an amazing catalogue of gems from various countries around the world, easily searchable, with a filtering system that allows you to quickly find what you're looking for. The prices are clearly listed and gem quality is detailed. The 3-5 day free shipping was spot on. A representative was also available for questions and responded quickly. This is a great place to browse and shop online. No question about where I will shop for gem stones next time.

Natural Sapphire Company is awesome! You can personally and completely customize your order online with their easy to use website, with a great selection of natural sapphires and high quality settings. Lauren is amazing and makes the most beautiful jewelry. She made my wife's wedding ring from a pink sapphire and white gold, and then a year later made her earrings that match the wedding ring. You will receive your jewelry VERY quickly, in a professional certified gem documentation packet, and a very attractive gem box. Lauren is easy to work with, responsive, and delivers on schedule. I researched a LOT of places, both brick and mortar and online, prior to going with Natural Sapphire Company, and for the price and service they can't be beat. Go to their website and see for yourself, use their chat box and ask questions, you will be very happy you chose them!!

We knew we wanted a sapphire but we didn t know where to begin. The second we booked our appointment at The Natural Sapphire Company and we met Lauren who greeted us with the biggest, most genuine smile- we knew we had made the right choice and had met our match.

Lauren listened so carefully and patiently to our thoughts and ideas. She asked the right questions to help guide us and lead us in the right direction so we could nail down exactly what it was that we wanted. Plus, we had a lot of fun and laughs with her while figuring it all out!

Her communication from the get-go was consistent. Knowing we could trust her with our vision and budget took a tremendous weight off of us and allowed what could have been a stressful process, to go smoothly.

We couldn t be more thrilled with how gorgeous the ring turned out but Lauren made our experience so special and memorable and we cannot thank her enough. We feel incredibly lucky to have met her, worked with her, and have had her be part of such an exciting time in our lives!

Thank you so much!
