Sapphires are the second hardest stones (substance) in the world, behind diamonds. While blue sapphire is the most highly prized of the sapphire's colors, there is one type that is even more rare and valued. There is also a rare variety of sapphire known as color changing sapphire – this stone can change its appearance from blue to violet in different lights.

Some light blue sapphires are heat or chemically treated, in order to create a darker blue look, and there are also lab created sapphires, which are not worth nearly as much as the real stone. Sapphires are one of the most interesting stones in the world.

Fashion Jewelry

Exclusive Summary About Fashion Jewelry By Alison Cole
