Round Faceted Genuine Blue Sapphire

Sapphire is one of the most popular colored gemstones in the United States, prized for its extraordinary durability and suitability for everyday wear. Pure corundum — the mineral that sapphire is composed of — is actually colorless in its purest form, but trace elements of iron and titanium produce the rich blue color sapphire is celebrated for. These round faceted genuine blue sapphires are heat-treated and available in four quality grades, ranging from Grade C to Grade AAA, allowing jewelers to select the right stone for any application or price point. Sapphire is the birthstone for September.
