Sapphire Colors for Engagement Rings
The traditional color of sapphire for an engagement ring is a blue sapphire. The highest quality blue sapphire would be a rich, deep royal blue Ceylon sapphire. However, blue is not the only color found in sapphire! Another extremely rare and valuable sapphire is a Padparadscha sapphire, a deep saturated pinkish-orange color. Not all peach sapphires are classified as Padparadscha sapphire, but a nice peach sapphire is still rare! Purple sapphire and pink sapphire are close to the top of this list in popularity, and while green sapphire is not often sought after, it can be found in shades of blue, green, and yellow-green, and it can be absolutely gorgeous, surrounded by white diamonds. see the full article
