Rarest of all natural sapphires is the, Padparadscha, a bright, striking pink-orange color that is sure to encourage eye-popping and jewelry envy.
Besides their natural beauty, sapphires have been linked to a deeper power. Throughout history they have been revered as a source of wisdom. They help align the mind, body and spirit into a state of serenity. While wearing a sapphire, you attract prosperity, release mental tension, and live more in line with your life purpose.
