Sapphire Engagement Ring Colours
There is one gemstone that rivals diamonds? versatility and hardness, one that shines bright with its unique colours and vibrancy, the sapphire. Mined mainly in Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Madagascar, Thailand, Cambodia, Tanzania, Australia and the US, sapphires are often bought not because they are more affordable than diamonds, but primarily because of their outstanding colours. They are easy to maintain and will turn heads wherever you go, making them a popular choice for engagement rings, since they come in almost any colour imaginable.

The most recognizable blue shade is due to the presence of titanium and iron in the corundum. The Kashmir blue and Ceylon sapphire are amongst the most highly coveted and while the Kashmir mine in India is already exhausted, the Ceylon mine still produces the gorgeous electric blue gemstone. Princess Diana?s engagement ring featured a Ceylon sapphire, which is now worn by The Duchess of Cambridge, and is cemented in royal jewellery chronicles for good. Prince William couldn?t have honoured his mother, Diana, in a better way than to make an heirloom out of her engagement ring by proposing to his then-fiancée with it.
