Frequently asked questions
-
Is sapphire durable for everyday jewelry?
Yes. Sapphire scores a 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamond. It is ideal for daily wear in all jewelry types including rings.
-
Does sapphire look better in gold or silver?
Both work beautifully. Yellow gold creates a warm, classic pairing that royalty has prized for centuries. Sterling silver and white gold offer a modern, high-contrast look. Rose gold adds romantic warmth. All options are available at Erin Gallagher Jewelry.
-
Are sapphire and ruby the same stone?
They are the same mineral: corundum (Mohs 9). Red corundum is ruby. All other colors are sapphire. They share identical hardness, crystal structure, and physical properties.
