Sapphires of All Types - Natural Sapphire Gemstones - Best Selection of Fine Natural Sapphires Guaranteed & Certified


Loose Sapphire Gemstones, Natural Unheated Sapphire, Certified Natural Sapphires and Unique Sapphire Rings
When someone mentions loose sapphire gemstones, one of the first things that come to mind is the blue sapphire. One of the reasons is because it’s the birthstone of September, making it more popular. But sapphires do come in other colors, including:
Pink Sapphire
Purple Sapphire
Orange Sapphire
Padparadscha Sapphire
Golden Sapphire
Yellow Sapphire
All sapphires are part of the corundum mineral family, the same family as ruby gems. , but the more rare the color, the more valuable the stone. For example, the Padparadscha Sapphire, with its pink-orange hue, is not as readily found as the blue sapphire, pink sapphire or yellow sapphire. In fact, the Padparadscha Sapphire is so rare it’s among one of the most expensive of all loose gemstones, either semi-precious or precious. But aside from being the sapphire being September’s birthstone, it does have a colorful history that’s interesting to learn.
