MULTI SAPPHIRE JEWELRY

Although sapphire means blue in Latin, sapphires can

 

be found in a rainbow of colors. Kings once believed

 

these stones offered protection form harm and envy.

 

Sapphires are calm and relaxing. Until the discovery

 

of extraordinary stones in Kashmir in 1880, Sri Lanka

 

(formerly known as Ceylon) was the standard bearer of

 

sapphire. The Kashmir supply was essentially exhausted

 

by 1930, leaving Sri Lanka as the location of the

 

world's most beautiful sapphires. Sapphires are also

 

mined in Madagascar, Australia and Thailand. Sapphires

 

come other colors such as red, orange, yellow, green,

 

blue, purple and pink. Colors other than blue are

 

referred to as "rainbow sapphires" or "fancy

 

sapphires". Sapphire is the traditional gift for the

 

fifth and forty-fifth wedding anniversaries and the

 

birthstone for September.
