About the Item

Loose Sapphire Weight: 1.10 Carats Dimension: 5.5 x 5.3 x 3.9 Mm Colour: Greenish Blue Origin: Africa Treatment: Heated Certificate: Available Shape: Cushion Sapphire, a gemstone of legendary beauty and enduring allure, captivates with its rich history, stunning color variations, and remarkable durability. As one of the "big three" gemstones alongside diamonds and rubies, sapphires hold a cherished place in both ancient lore and modern jewelry design. Renowned for its mesmerizing blue hues, sapphire derives its name from the Greek word "sappheiros," meaning blue stone. However, sapphires are not limited to blue; they occur in a spectrum of colors, including pink, yellow, green, purple, and even colorless, with each shade possessing its unique charm and rarity. Throughout history, sapphires have been revered for their symbolism and mystical properties. Ancient civilizations believed sapphires to be talismans of wisdom, protection, and spiritual enlightenment. Royalty adorned themselves with sapphires to signify power, virtue, and divine favor. In folklore, sapphires were said to possess healing powers and bring inner peace and tranquility to the wearer. Beyond their symbolic significance, sapphires are prized for their exceptional hardness, ranking 9 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamonds. This durability makes sapphires ideal for everyday wear in jewelry, including engagement rings and heirloom pieces, ensuring they can be cherished for generations. Sapphire's allure extends beyond its beauty and symbolism; it also boasts remarkable optical properties. Known for its phenomenon called asterism, or the "star effect," certain sapphires display a captivating star-shaped pattern when cut en cabochon and illuminated by a point source of light. These star sapphires, with their ethereal radiance, evoke a sense of wonder and enchantment. In modern times, sapphires continue to captivate jewelry enthusiasts and collectors alike. From classic solitaire rings to contemporary designs featuring unconventional color combinations, sapphires offer endless possibilities for creativity and self-expression. Their timeless elegance makes them a beloved choice for commemorating special occasions and celebrating life's milestones. Whether adorning a royal crown, gracing a celebrity's red carpet ensemble, or symbolizing everlasting love in an engagement ring, sapphires embody beauty, sophistication, and enduring value, ensuring their place as one of the most cherished gemstones in the world of jewelry.
