Sapphires
Sapphires are one of the most iconic and enduring gemstones in fine
jewellery. Known for their remarkable durability and range of colour,
sapphires have been treasured for centuries in royal collections,
engagement rings and heirloom pieces.
What Is a Sapphire?
Sapphire is a variety of the mineral corundum. While blue is the most wellknown, sapphires naturally occur in a wide spectrum of colours, including green, yellow, peach and pink. These are known as “fancy sapphires.”
Only red corundum is classified as ruby. All other colours fall under the sapphire family.
Australian Sapphires
Australia is known for producing some of the world’s most unique sapphires, particularly parti sapphires. These display a natural mix of colours, often green, blue and yellow, within a single stone. Each one is completely one of a kind and unrepeatable.
Symbolism
Historically, sapphires have been associated with wisdom, loyalty and protection. They are often chosen for engagement rings and meaningful gifts because of their timeless symbolism and strength.
