Fancy Sapphires (Multi-Color Sapphires)
DescriptionAs any artist will tell you, the sky is never just blue. Look upon the sunrise or sunset, and we know that a yellow is not just a yellow, an orange not just an orange. Soft, warm, and rich, fancy color sapphires may come in the many colors of a rainbow, but there is definitely a tint of warmth that lets you know that it’s the sunset you’re looking at. With its characteristic beauty, color, transparency, hardness, and durability, more and more people are replacing diamonds with colored sapphires as engagement rings. |
