Geology & Formation

Sapphire is a variety of corundum, composed of aluminum oxide. Trace elements of iron and titanium give sapphire its rich blue hue. With a Mohs hardness of 9, it is one of the hardest gemstones, second only to diamond, making it exceptionally durable for jewelry. Sapphires are mined worldwide, with notable sources in Sri Lanka, Madagascar, and Kashmir, each known for distinctive shades of blue.
