Every month carries with it a special gemstone, and this coming month, September, is attached to the stunning sapphire. Most famous for its sparkling blue hue, as seen in our Silver Sapphire Spiral Portofino Necklace, sapphires also come in almost every colour, including pink and green! Indeed the only colour which sapphires cannot be found in is red.
Sapphires are beautiful and special gemstones – not only as jewellery, but also, due to their incredible hardness (they rank as the third hardest mineral after diamonds and moissanite), used in high-durability windows and in infrared optical components!
One of the largest blue sapphires in existence can be found at the National Musuem of Natural History in Washington. Found in Sri Lanka, the Logan Sapphire is a massive 422.99 carats!
Here at Augustine Jewels we love the elegance and vibrancy of sapphires in our jewellery – be sure to take a look at our Cotswold and Portofino collections for examples of these stunning jewels.

Have you heard the news? The most expensive gemstone on Earth, the Pink Star diamond, was sold last week in Hong Kong.
This pink gemstone is unique in many ways: with its 59.60 carats, it already held the record for being the largest Fancy Vivid pink, Internally Flawless diamond ever graded by the GIA (Gemological Institute of America).
However, last week it further exceeded everyone's expectations, by becoming the most expensive gemstone to ever be sold: Hong Kong jewellery company Chow Tai Fook bought it at auction for $71.2 million, surpassing its original estimate of $60 million at Sotheby's Hong Kong.
Before last week, the record for the most expensive gemstone was held by the Oppenheimer Blue diamond, which was sold for $57.5 million at Christie's in Geneva last may.
This beautiful gemstone seems to be full of surprises! We wonder when it will next be on the news...?
If you like the look of this pink beauty, why not shop for our pink Morganite and pink Quartz jewels? You can find them here and here.
