september birthstone jewellery - sapphire

Individuals with September birthdays have a sapphire as their gemstone. Sapphires are gorgeous gemstones that are thought to symbolise truth and sincerity. They’ve been worn by royalty and clergymen around the world for centuries and the ancient Greeks believed that sapphires protected them from harm. Sapphires are extremely popular in all forms of sapphire jewellery, with perhaps one of the most famous sapphires of recent decades being the sapphire engagement ring worn by Princess Diana upon her engagement to Prince Charles, which today is worn by Kate Middleton. The name sapphire comes from the Latin word for the lapis lazuli, and their remarkable hardness makes them suitable for daily wear, especially in rings and other items that require extra durability. At Abelini, we have a wide range of sapphire birthstone jewellery including sapphire rings.
