Introduction to Sapphire Necklaces

The sapphire, also known as September’s birthstone, is adored for its stunning hues and brilliance. This beautiful gem requires millions of years and the ideal conditions for metamorphic processes, including high temperature and pressure. Ranking as the third-hardest gemstone on the Mohs scale of hardness, sapphires are considered among the most treasured gemstones in the world. Contrary to popular belief, sapphires are not limited to blue hues. The sapphire family also includes pink, yellow, green, and black. Trace elements like iron, titanium, and chromium contribute to this color variation, creating a stunning color palette. Sapphire has historically been one of the most revered gemstones for kings and queens as they believed it protected them from harm and envy. It was highly valued in ancient Greece and Rome, and its significance continued through the Middle Ages. Between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, violet-blue sapphires came from the Kashmir region of India. Until large deposits were found in Madagascar, which now leads the sapphire mining industry, Australia was a renowned source of sapphires. Their unique beauty and durability make them a popular jewelry choice today. Sapphire necklaces are especially loved to accessorize gowns and formal dresses, adding a pop of color and a touch of elegance to the outfit.

Carat weight: Regarding sapphires, two stones of the same size and carat weight can have different values. That’s because the rarer the stone, the higher its value.
