Sapphire

Sapphire is the September birthstone. This mesmerizing gemstone symbolizes wisdom, loyalty and faith. It was once believed to protect your loved ones from harm. Sapphire lets us get real because it offers protection, discipline, insight and healing. She carries great wisdom of intuitive truth and memories of the elders. A symbol of friendship and peace, and a shield for negative energy.

We use recycled silver from Umicore. This company is listed as a Conflict Free Smelter by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMA), Chain-of-Custody certified by the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC), and complies with the LBMA Responsible Ag Guidance.
