Please help choosing a ring (out of 2) for a special birthday.

Both blue stones, although the round one is discernibly blue, whereas the rectangular cut stone is an aquamarine but has barely any colour, the slightest hint of blue, almost clear in some lights. I am stuck! Any opinions are appreciated. Recipient will be 50 and has had a dreadful year. Thanks :)

Rectangular

Rectangular! It's classic, simple, expensive looking and lovely.

Rectangular one is lovely op

rectangular, just more modern classic. the circular one is too "old" for a 50 year old, my mum is 70 and i know she'd like the rectangle one.

Rectangular one for me too, much classier.

Another vote for the rectangular one, and I'm a similar age to your lucky recipient.

Thanks! Rectangular it is, then! :)
