LEARN MORE ABOUT PINK SAPPHIRE

The word sapphire stone comes from the Greek word "sappheiros", which means blue. In ancient times, sapphires were believed to be very powerful. While blue sapphires are the most well-known variety, pink sapphires are becoming increasingly popular, particularly as an alternative to pink diamonds, which can be quite expensive.

In many cultures, pink sapphires are also associated with trust, loyalty, sincerity, and intense love. That is the reason that they became a famous choice for engagement rings, particularly among brides who want something unique and feminine. Natural pink sapphires can complement blush or baby pink wedding themes making an ideal option.

One of the reasons that pink sapphires are less expensive than pink diamonds is that diamonds are much rarer. While diamonds are formed deep within the earth, pink sapphire is formed closer to the surface, which means that it is more abundant in quantity. However, this doesn't mean that pink sapphires are any less beautiful or valuable. Some pink sapphires can be just as rare and valuable and have the same diamond quality, depending on their size, quality, and color intensity.

Pink Sapphire Properties

Pink sapphires share many similarities with rubies as both are essentially the same mineral (corundum) with the same chemical composition. The color of pink sapphires, like rubies, comes from the presence of chromium in the crystal structure, with deeper shades indicating higher chromium concentrations. Both stones can exhibit red fluorescence under UV light depending on the amount of chromium and iron present. Pink sapphires are hard and durable with a Mohs hardness of 9, making them suitable for everyday wear.

 

Pink Sapphire Care

Clean pink sapphire jewelry regularly with warm, soapy water and a soft brush. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Store pink sapphire jewelry separately to prevent damage to the stone. Inspect the ring regularly for loose settings or damage.
