When we say "sapphire," you're probably picturing something super classic like a blue sapphire and diamond engagement ring, but sapphire has range. This incredible gemstone, the birthstone for September, actually comes in every color of the rainbow.
Our artists often choose sapphires in unique hues—think purple, teal, green, yellow, and orange—to showcase in their designs, set in solid gold to let them shine bright.
Ancient civilizations—including the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians—believed sapphires could protect them from envy, harm, and even poison! And Medieval clergy often wore sapphire rings as a symbol of divine favor and wisdom.
Fast forward to modern times, and sapphires are still a symbol of loyalty, truth, and inner strength.
Sapphires are a 9 out of 10 on the Mohs scale (diamonds are 10), making them extremely durable and perfect for everyday wear, so they're a perfect option for alternative engagement rings. No matter how you wear these beautiful natural sapphire pieces, it's sure to become an instant heirloom.
