Blue Sapphire

Blue sapphires are a stunning and captivating gemstone, prized for their deep and rich shade of blue. Their colour is caused by traces of iron and titanium in the mineral corundum, giving them a unique appearance. Blue sapphires also possess an asterism, a star effect, that adds an extra layer of intrigue and beauty to the gemstone. They are also believed to have healing and spiritual properties, making them a symbol of loyalty and commitment. Blue sapphires can be found in many locations around the world, including Sri Lanka, Madagascar, and Myanmar. Some of the most valuable blue sapphires come from the Kashmir region of India, which is known for producing sapphires with a unique velvety blue colour.

Features of blue sapphires
  • A unique feature of blue sapphires is their brilliance, thanks to their high refractive index. This means that they have a strong ability to bend light, giving them a sparkling and radiant appearance.
  • Blue sapphires also have a unique and beautiful asterism, or star effect, which is caused by small, needle-like inclusions within the stone. This effect is visible when the stone is viewed under a direct light source and adds an extra layer of intrigue and beauty to the gem.
  • Sapphires are a 9 on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, which means they are very resistant to scratches and other types of damage. This makes them a great choice for everyday wear.
  • In addition to their durability, blue sapphires are also known for their brilliance and fire.
  • In addition to being a popular choice for jewellery, blue sapphires are also believed to have healing and spiritual properties. Many cultures associate the stone with wisdom, truth, and faith, making it a symbol of loyalty and commitment.
