These hot pink sapphire stud earrings charismatically flirt with being close to a ruby hue. Sapphires and rubies are the same mineral “species”, corundum. Chromium in the mineral is what gives the ruby its red color and if the hue is not saturated enough and appears more pink, it is classified as a pink sapphire.

From our ancient ancestors, to royalty, to clergy, the consensus throughout time is that sapphires are “divine”.
Ancient Persians believed the earth rested upon a giant sapphire, whose color is reflected in the sky. To the nobility across multiple cultures, they symbolized peace, virtue, wisdom and holiness. In the Middle Ages, sapphires signified heaven to the clergy, by which blessings were granted to their “flock”.
Whatever they may symbolize for you today, we’ve outlined points to help you understand value and what to ask to make an informed decision on the sapphire you will LOVE!
