Our Product Story
Sapphire is the birthstone of September. The finest sapphires are considered to be the blue variety - specifically those from Burma and Kashmir, which are closest to the pure spectral blue. Fine, brilliant, deep blue Burmese sapphires will surely dazzle the eye, and the pocketbook, as will those from Kashmir, which are a fine velvety-toned deep blue. Blue sapphires also come from Tanzania, Brazil, Africa, and even the U.S.A. (Montana and North Carolina).
Sapphires also come in other colors, especially yellow and pink, and in smaller sizes, some beautiful shades of green. These are known as fancy sapphires, and they are becoming more and more popular. Compared to the cost of blue sapphire and ruby, these stones offer excellent value and real beauty.
Sterling silver is a white, highly reflective precious metal composed of 925 parts of pure silver and 75 parts alloy, usually copper. Copper provides the silver with sufficient hardness and wearing qualities, as pure silver is sometimes considered too soft to be used or worn everyday. Sterling silver is used in a wide variety of jewelry for a beautiful polished look.
Gold is a remarkable, precious metal, with an unparalleled combination of chemical and physical properties. The only yellow metal, its name comes from the Old English word for yellow, 'geolu'. As the only metal that forms no oxide film on its surface in air at normal temperatures means that it will never rust or tarnish.
