Sapphires are some of the most beloved precious stones on the planet, coveted for their rich beauty, their diversity of splendid colors, and durability. They are incredibly versatile, providing the perfect touch in any type of jewelry or setting. They work very well with all metals, including gold, silver, platinum, and titanium. Sapphire is the September birthstone, but its popularity extends far beyond those born in the ninth month.

Sapphire rings literally come in all shapes and sizes, and are a great choice for both women and men. In many rings sapphire is the primary stone. In others, it offers a brilliant complement to a center diamond or ruby, its sister stone. While second in hardness only to diamonds, sapphires can be cut into many shapes that produce a variety of looks and can be worn and enjoyed by many generations to come. Exquisite marquise cuts, romantic hearts, classic elegant rounds, and other shapes both traditional and contemporary expand the possibilities. Sapphire engagement rings are also becoming more popular with each wedding season. Any number of ring settings can be employed, and the aesthetics of all are richly enhanced by the inclusion of a gorgeous sapphire.

Sapphire pendants are another popular setting for a luxurious sapphire. Pendants serve to set off this precious stone to best advantage, hanging from a necklace befitting the stone’s prestige. The style options are limited only by the artisan’s imagination – or yours! Many sapphire lovers enjoy designing their own pendant setting, so once they have selected their stone, they can colaborate with the jeweler and create a piece of jewelry they will deeply cherish, .

Sapphire earrings may boast simple splendor or lavish luxury, the choice is yours. A wide selection of options allows you to choose a look that fits your style or personality, and if you own multiple pairs of sapphire earrings, you’ll have the right fashion statement for ever occasion.  Sapphire studs are available in all sizes and price ranges and can be dressed up or down.  Elegant oval sapphires surrounded by diamond melee are a dressier look and a timeless classic.

Sapphire bracelets can be as unique as you are. The selection available allows you to accentuate your look and produce a style all your own. Sapphire bracelets deliver an exquisite look with options available to meet any budget.  A sapphire bangle bracelet by itself, or in combination with other bangles, is a hot look.  Vintage Art-Deco bracelets in platinum featuring sapphires and diamonds are one of our most popular requests.

Remember that fine jewelry sporting sapphires is available in a full range of colors – not simply the traditional blue, but also pink, orange, yellow, and green.  The extra effort you put into your perfect gift selection will give her a story that she’ll love to tell and remember forever.
