Sapphire;The Jewel of the Sky

Revered for thousands of years, sapphire has been sought after, and was known as the ultimate blue gemstone. Its blue brilliance is rare and is said to represent seraphic or celestial qualities. Since the bible days, sapphire has been a symbol of truth, sincerity, and faithfulness. In Mount Sinai Moses was given the ten commandments on tablets of sapphire, making it the most holiest gemstone. Since then Sapphire has been the best choice for kings, priests and even today the British Crown Jewels are full of large blue sapphires, the symbol of pure and wise rulers

Because sapphire symbolizes sincerity and faithfulness, it makes an excellent choice for an engagement ring. Prince Charles of Wales adorned his Princess, Diana with a marvelous sapphire engagement ring and today couples allover the world follow the trend. This September birth stone has long been the favorite for married couples who are celebrating their 5th and 45th wedding anniversaries. A stylish and unique symbol of faith indeed
