Care & Quality
Clean with lukewarm water, a drop of mild soap, and a soft brush; rinse and dry. Ultrasonic/steam is generally safe for unfilled sapphires—avoid for heavily included or fracture-filled stones. Store pieces separately to protect finishes.
Where Sapphires Are Found
Notable origins include Sri Lanka (Ceylon), Madagascar, Myanmar (Mogok), Thailand, Australia, and the USA (Montana—Yogo & Rock Creek); historic Kashmir blues are rare and celebrated.
