Blue Sapphire

The breathtaking blue of Sapphire has captured man's imagination for millennia. The ancients believed that Blue Sapphire had the ability to make peace between warring parties and could influence the spirit world. An enduring symbol for loyalty and trust, it's frequently chosen to celebrate engagements or anniversaries. Perhaps the best-known modern sapphire is the 18 carat oval stunner that announced Princess Diana's engagement, and then her son's engagement to the Duchess of Cambridge.  September Birthstone.

Many believe that the darker the color, the more valuable the gem. Sapphire is the exception: the vibrant midtone "cornflower" color is most prized. With shades ranging from inky blue to azure, there is a blue for everyone to experience the enchantment of this splendid gem.
