SAPPHIRE BACKGROUND INFO:
Blue Sapphire, beloved for centuries as the ultimate blue gemstone. The ancient Persian rulers believed that the earth rested on a giant sapphire and its reflection coloured the heavens blue. Indeed, the very name in Latin, "Sapphiru," means blue.

The finer hues of blue are mainly found in Sri Lanka, Thailand and Madagascar. The darker blue sapphires are mined mainly in Australia, Africa and China.
Methods have been developed to improve the appearance of a sapphire. The most common method is by controlled heating. This is a permanent enhancement and is approved by the GIA (Gemmological Institute of America).
