SAPPHIRE - from the Latin word meaning blue,
the birthstone for September.
Despite the huge gems you see in museums and Royal collections, sapphires
available on the market are of a more modest size. Sapphires of the top blue color over 5
carats, if clean, are rare and expensive. Next to diamond, sapphire and ruby (both
corundum) is the hardest mineral known and is very compact and dense, with no cleavage. As
a result, sapphires and rubies are tough and relatively scratch-resistant. That's why, in
addition to their beauty, sapphires and rubies are two of the best jewelry
stones.Traditionally, sapphires are usually associated with the color blue. In modern
times however, other colors of sapphires: pink, yellow, purple, orange, white and
green are getting more and more popular, some of them reaching very high prices. On this
page you will find a number of current BLUE sapphires selected from our stock
for gem presentation. If you are looking for sapphire in colors other than blue,
please check our fancy
color sapphire page.
