Sapphire
History
Sapphire,
the celestial gemstone, has been treasured for thousands of years. The
ancient Persians believed that the earth rested on a giant sapphire and
its reflection colored the sky. Sapphire is found in all the colors of
the heavens: from midnight blue to the bright blue of noon sky in the
Mediterranean, golden sunrise to fiery reddish-orange sunsets, and the
delicate violet of twilight. The most famous and valuable sapphires are
a rich intense blue, a truly royal hue.
Although
we have only talked about Blue Sapphires many other colors are
available. Some of these are quite rare.
