		<description>Thanks for the info, Kevin, I had no idea that a difference in color would make such a huge difference in price! I don&#039;t blame you for not carrying them in blue but it is a shame! :( That&#039;s ok, you guys have so many other gorgeous stones to pick from and I really appreciate the fact that you insist on high quality. With all of my orders from you I was always impressed with the quality of the stones. :)</description>

		<description>Cuban Queen,

We actually have some blue cubic zirconia. It is a gorgeous sapphire blue!

Last year we ordered samples of CZ from the factory in ruby pink, sapphire blue, and smoky. They look really nice, but they cost about 7 times the price of the standard colors. We would have to sell a 9x36mm faceted flat teardrop in sapphire blue for over $20. We just didn&#039;t think that people would like that, so we chose not to carry them. I&#039;m not sure if you noticed that we had sapphire blue teardrops in the &quot;free gifts&quot; this holiday season. Since we weren&#039;t going to sell the samples, we decided to give them away.

I&#039;m not sure why those colors are so much more expensive. The factory just told us that creating those colors requires a totally different process.

		<description>This week&#039;s picks do seem to be very &quot;green&quot; inspired.  Do you think all of us are a little anxious for spring to come.  I know that I&#039;m excited to see a little of the snow melting due to our unusually warm (50 degrees yesterday) weather.</description>
