Sapphire

Sapphire, the September birthstone comes in all the colours of the rainbow – except red. The September birthstone has been long associated with royalty and romance and are also said to symbolise fidelity and the soul. “Sapphire” comes from the Greek word sappheiros and blue Sapphire is one of the most popular coloured stones. The September birthstone has traditionally symbolised sincerity, truth, faithfulness and nobility. For countless centuries, Sapphire has adorned royalty and the robes of the clergy. The elite of ancient Greece and Rome believed that blue Sapphires protected their owners from harm and envy. Clerics of the Middle Ages wore Sapphires because they symbolised Heaven. Ancient Persians believed the earth actually rested on a giant Sapphire, which made the sky blue. The September birthstone was reputed to have healing powers as well. Medieval Europeans believed that Sapphire cured plague boils and diseases of the eye. Sapphire was also thought to be an antidote to poison. In addition to being the September birthstone, Sapphire is also the gem commemorating the 5th and 45th wedding anniversaries. The September birthstone is relatively hard, scoring a 9 on the MOH's scale. It has excellent toughness and no cleavage, which is a tendency to break when struck. This makes it a great choice for rings and other mountings subject to daily wear.
