Here are a few reasons why we love the Pink Sapphire and why you should too.
For a gemstone with a soft, feminine color, these gems have great hardness making them a lovely choice or rings, earrings and even pendants. Strong and durable, they can be cut in almost any shape from hearts, pears and even modified fancy cutting styles while still being a good choice for jewelry because of the gems internal strong bonds.

When it comes to color, the Pink Sapphire vs Ruby debate has been one that still remains a common area for discussion, but what is it that determines if a gem is a pink sapphire as opposed to a unique Ruby. With slight color differences, borderline gems can often be mistaken for the other but do remain increasingly valuable nonetheless. Although sometimes difficult, always insist on a certificate when purchasing colored gemstones because it helps give you the assurance of the color, clarity and quality of the gemstone.

A ruby, just as we have been told growing up, is a red, deeper hued gem that sparkles elegantly in the sunlight. Used as an auspicious gem throughout history the ruby has signified fire and romance because of the richness of its body color. A well faceted gemstone, with a depth of color is often compared to the color of a pigeon’s blood. One of the more rare color’s Rubies and Pink Sapphires get their hues from Chromium that gets intermingled in the chemical composition. More chromium content lends a deeper colored gemstone.

An investment that will never depreciate over time, natural Pink Sapphires and natural Rubies are gems that will always be in vogue thanks to the timelessness of their color.
