Sapphire rings - secret information for buying one!

Beauty is but a vain and doubtful good; a shining gloss that fadeth suddenly; a flower that dies when it begins to bud; a doubtful good, a gloss, a glass, a flower, lost, faded, broken, dead within an hour. - William Shakespeare (1564-1616, British Poet, Playwright, Actor)To simplify this very line, by the greatest novelist, belonging to Stratford-upon-Avon, Shakespeare, has termed beauty as a mortal phase in various elements of life. Nature’s life forms have been bestowed with a limited time period into which they exist, and perish. Nevertheless, there is always an exception to this doctrine of God. Beauty’s evanescence has always been traced, prevalent in all forms. Mughal emperor Shah Jahan took no time to bring upon a specimen of manmade marvel named Taj Mahal, to his beautiful wife, Mumtaj Mahal. They are no more to cherish their unity and love now. However, the resplendent monument has outlived their masters as a symbol of love and affection.Likewise, lovely and glittering colored gemstones are objects of desire, treasured within generations. Mortal bodies made of flesh and blood may not endure but colored gemstones do last forever with their sheen and brilliance, if taken proper care and precautions. Talking about sapphire rings, it is a much sought after gemstone since centuries. Sapphire is found in shades like pink, orange, blue, and yellow. Buying sapphire jewelry needs some points to be kept in mind. •    Color- Color is a main factor before deciding upon any stone. Primarily, shade is most important. Pink is a hot favorite amongst all young women, whereas, blue, with a royal touch makes a persistent choice topping the demand. Versatile colors like orange provides different look to the wearer and yellow is a sun kissed sapphire complimenting light as well as dark skin tones. Nevertheless, whatever be the color, uniformity and color reflection also contribute towards price makeup.•    Cut- Cutter’s responsibility is a tedious job to give a brilliant gleaming look to the gem. The degree of sparkle depends on number of facets carved of the rough. Choose amongst oval, round, cushion and almost all other shapes. Round is most preferred one since it has the most number of facets. Thus, more brilliance as compared to other shapes.•    Clarity- Natural sapphires are very rare, and demand real high brand price. However, in case of flaws, there are sapphires with treatments and inclusions. Heat treated sapphires possess same and permanent clarity. However, treated ones cannot boast of the same value as their natural cousins do. Therefore, their prices go up and down. Simultaneously saturated ones provide a little less competition than clear transparent ones.•    Carat Weight- Carat weight is the unit to measure weight of diamonds and gems. Another unit to measure weight is (mm). Sapphire are very neatly cut. To preserve more weight or extract from the rough, cutting a gem is a cleverly done job.•     Thus, two sapphires of different cut and shape may vary in carat weight due to different proportions. Carat Weight does contribute towards deciding value but doesn’t affect it as much as color does.Rings are available with a blue sapphire laced by diamonds or clustered with other sapphire stones like pink and yellow.
