Have you ever wondered how long people have doted over sapphires? Sapphire has been a popular gemstone for a longer amount of time than any of us actually need to know. All we really need to know is that sapphire is a gorgeous gemstone, and I’d say we’re already quite knowledgeable in that respect!
We most commonly know sapphires to exhibit a gorgeous deep blue coloring, but sapphire is actually available in a variety of bright colors (often assisted to brighter coloring through heat treatments). Sapphires come in pink, green, yellow, purple, blue, clear—as I said, a variety of colors. And beautiful colors, at that.
As legend states, sapphire is believed to offer healing properties for those suffering from colic, rheumatism and mental illnesses. It has also been used as an antidepressant and to provide spiritual enlightenment and inner peace to the wearer/beholder. Quite the impressive little stone, eh? Yes, I’d say so.
