R0170 18pcs Pink Sapphire Silver ring

Sapphire is one of the two gem-varieties of corundum, the other being ruby (defined as corundum in a shade of red). Although blue is the best-known sapphire color, they occur in other colors, including gray and black, and also can be colorless. A pinkish orange variety of sapphire is called padparadscha. Significant sapphire deposits are found in Australia, Afghanistan, Cambodia, Cameroon, China (Shandong), Colombia, Ethiopia, India (Kashmir), Kenya, Laos, Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, Myanmar (Burma), Nigeria, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Thailand, United States (Montana) and Vietnam. In the gemstone industry, white gemstones also refer to colourless stones. These stones are particularly popular as diamond substitutes because they’re often so much cheaper. If you’re curious about the many white gems that aren’t diamonds, we’ve compiled a list of those that sparkle just as brightly!
