COLOR-CHANGE SAPPHIRE
Color-change sapphires are the chameleons of the sapphire world, and are incredibly rare stones. They change color under different lighting. Under daylight, the typical color-change is from blue to violet. Sapphire is one of the “big three” of jewelry colored gemstones—the other two being ruby and emerald. When shopping for sapphire, be sure to ask if the stone has been treated. A naturally colored sapphire will fetch far more money, and has more value, than one that has been altered. Sapphires captivate their audience with their durability, rarity and aura of romance. Traditionally, they symbolize nobility, truth, sincerity, and faithfulness. Large blue sapphires are very rare, and market price reflects that. Sapphire is the birthstone for September, the gemstone for Taurus and Aquarius, and the gem of the 5th and 45th anniversaries. It has a hardness of 9.0, making it very durable for everyday wear with proper care. More about Sapphire HERE
