Gemstone enhancements

Sapphire

    Soothing, sensuous blue; liquid blue; evening sky blue; cornflower blue ... these are among the many shades of this lovely gemstone. And yet, there are many colors and hues of Sapphire from which to choose: the hot and soft pinks; the oranges, greens, purples, golds, yellows and whites...all for your pleasure.

    Since ancient time, man has treasured Sapphire. Some thought the heavens crystallized to form a huge Sapphire upon which the earth rested. All sought the pure colors of this gemstone variety as an expression of beauty and wealth. Yet, the perfect Sapphire is as rare as the finest work of art. Thus, over the centuries, we have evolved methods to enhance the purest hues of Sapphire. This is often achieved by controlled heating of the gemstone to improve its clarity and color. Heating Sapphires is a permanent enhancement, as lasting as the gemstones themselves.
