Sapphire is a precious gemstone renowned for its exceptional beauty, durability, and rich symbolism. Belonging to the corundum family, sapphires are most famously associated with a vivid blue hue, though they can be found in a variety of colors, including pink, yellow, green, purple, and even colorless. Red corundum is classified separately as ruby.

The deep blue sapphires, often enhanced by velvety or royal undertones, are the most iconic and highly prized. These gems are formed under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions and are valued for their remarkable hardness, scoring 9 on the Mohs scale—second only to diamonds. Sapphires are sourced from countries like Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Madagascar, and Australia.

Sapphires symbolize wisdom, loyalty, and nobility, often used in royal and religious jewelry. They are also the birthstone for September and a traditional choice for engagement rings, offering timeless elegance. Their durability, combined with their breathtaking color, makes sapphires a versatile and cherished gemstone for a wide range of fine jewelry designs.
