Natural sapphires are a precious gemstone from the corundum family (which also includes ruby). They offer a beautiful and more affordable alternative to traditional diamonds as an engagement ring centre stone. Celebrated for their rich, captivating colours and exceptional durability (sapphires measure 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, second only to diamonds), sapphires add a sophisticated and highly personal touch to your special forever ring. Ranging from classic deep royal blue to mesmerising shades of teal, green, pink, yellow, peach, orange, purple and more, these amazing gemstones provide a diverse palette that allows couples to express their individuality. Beyond their beauty, sapphires carry deep historical and symbolic significance, representing loyalty, wisdom and eternal love. If you're looking for a timeless, elegant ring that stands out, a sapphire engagement ring might just be the perfect choice.
Sapphire engagement rings have become a firm favourite with couples looking for a colourful, sophisticated, distinctive and ethical alternative to the more traditional diamond engagement rings. Renowned for their rainbow of vibrant colours and excellent durability, sapphires look wonderful in every imaginable engagement ring design.
While the price of sapphires varies depending on their colour, saturation and size, they are generally more affordable than natural diamonds, offering a luxurious look without stretching the budget.
While classic blue sapphires remain a popular choice, many couples are drawn to unique shades such as teal, green, parti or peach. The choice ultimately depends on your personal style and the meaning you want your ring to convey.
Natural sapphires are grown deep inside the Earth under high pressure and heat, taking thousands of years to form. Each natural sapphire features unique colouration and markings that make it one of a kind. Lab-grown sapphires are a man-made, cheaper alternative to natural ones. While being chemically identical to natural sapphires, they do not have the same colour range and are not available in parti colours. Both options offer the same durability, so the choice would come down to personal preference and budget.
Blue Sapphires – Classic and regal, symbolising trust and loyalty, blue sapphire engagement rings are endlessly captivating to look at.
Green Sapphires – Rich, earthy and vibrant, green sapphires symbolise love, harmony and balance. People who love spending time in nature often opt for green sapphire engagement rings.
Teal Sapphires – A modern and unique choice that reflects creativity and depth. Teal sapphire engagement rings are loved for their oceanic hues.
Parti Sapphires – If you are looking for a unique gem, Australia produces some of the most beautiful and sought-after parti sapphires in the world. Parti sapphire engagement rings are perfect for those who value individuality.
Pink Sapphires – Romantic and feminine, perfect for those who love a soft, delicate aesthetic. Pink sapphire engagement rings are supremely feminine.
Peach Sapphires – Softly coloured, peach sapphires are subtle and sophisticated. Their hues are enhanced by rose gold and yellow gold settings, which can accentuate either pinkish or orangish tones of a peach sapphire. Peach sapphire engagement rings are very elegant and look gorgeous with diamond accents.
Yellow Sapphires – Bright and cheerful, radiating warmth, joy and positivity. Yellow sapphire engagement rings are like a burst of sunshine on your hand.
Yes, the rarity and saturation of a sapphire’s colour influence its price. Deep royal blue, vivid cornflower blue and well-saturated Padparadscha (orangey-peach-pink) sapphires are among the most rare and valuable, while paler colours as well as green, teal, parti and yellow sapphires tend to be more budget-friendly.
White Gold or Platinum: Highlights the cool tones of blue, teal and purple sapphires and creates beautiful contrast to the richness of green sapphires. Platinum or white gold sapphire engagement rings are a timelessly classic look.
Yellow Gold: Enhances the warm colour of yellow sapphires, picks out the yellows in parti sapphires. Green and teal sapphires look warm-hued in gold sapphire engagement rings.
Rose Gold: Creates a romantic, feminine contrast with teal, green, parti and blue sapphires, enhances rose hues of pink, peach, Padparadscha and purple sapphires.
Sapphires look beautiful in a number of ring designs, from a simple and timeless solitaire, to more intricate styles. A cluster or a trilogy setting featuring diamonds provides crisp contrast to the centre sapphire, while a halo setting frames a sapphire, enhancing its size and brilliance. A bezel setting provides extra security for the stone, protecting it from knocks. Vintage-inspired settings featuring milgrain detail or double halos add romantic charm of a bygone era, while contemporary designs such as toi et moi and asymmetric settings, featuring additional gemstones or diamonds, add to the uniqueness of your ring.
Sapphires are second only to diamonds on the Mohs scale of hardness, making them highly durable. However, they are not indestructible (and neither are diamonds) and require care while wearing. We recommend taking your sapphire ring off before any activities that much damage it, such as going to the gym, doing household chores, gardening or rock climbing. If you have a very active lifestyle, we recommend lower, more protective designs with a bezel or a flush setting.
An engagement ring with a natural sapphire gem is perfectly suited for daily wear. Rings that feature more protective settings are best suited to those with very active lifestyles. Regular cleaning and professional inspections every 6-12 months will help maintain your sapphire’s brilliance.

Due to the differing geological conditions, each region produces its own distinct colours. Australian sapphires tend to have deeper, darker blue-teal hues, vibrant greens and yellows, while Ceylon sapphires are known for their bright, richly saturated blues, sunny yellows, pinks that range from pastel to magenta, oranges, lilacs and purples.
Sapphires have a softer, more subtle sparkle compared to diamonds, offering an elegant shimmer rather than a bright, fiery brilliance.

We use Australian ring size measurements, which are in an alphabetical range from A-Z.
As your fingers contract and expand due to the temperature, humidity, exercise, etc, your ring will fit on your finger tighter or looser. Your ring should fit comfortably and you need to find a balance between too big and too small. It is recommended that you should have to push your ring on tightly over your knuckle and it should spin slightly around the base of your finger. There should be some resistance when the ring is taken off – this will help to keep the ring on when your fingers are cold or wet. The correct size is the one that you feel the most confident and comfortable with.
We suggest that you size the finger you intend to wear your ring on at room temperature – this should provide you with a size that should be close to perfect most of the time.
Top-heavy rings can tend to spin on your finger, as the base of your finger is usually thinner than your knuckle. We suggest when sizing your finger for a top-heavy ring, that you err on the tighter side, rather than a loose fit. This will mean that the ring will stay on the top of your finger and it will ultimately be more comfortable to wear.
If you’re choosing a wide ring, you will tend to go up a size. There is more surface area on a wider ring and therefore more metal to grip to your finger.
If you are interested in a ring that is 5mm or wider, we suggest going up a size (one size larger than the sizing gauge). We suggest going up another size if the ring you are interested in is 9mm or larger (two sizes larger than the sizing gauge).
If you are buying a ring as a gift for someone, we recommend that you measure the inside diameter of a ring the person you’re buying the gift for, regularly wears on the finger your gift will be worn on.
If you do not know your ring size you can use this guide to obtain an approximate measurement.
Before measuring the finger on which the ring you’re purchasing will be worn, please ensure the following:
The number that lines up with edges of the opening is the ‘interior circumference’. Please note this number and then refer to our Ring Size Chart to choose the correct ring size.
If you do not know your ring size you can use this guide to obtain an approximate measurement.
If you have a ring that is worn on the finger you need sizing, print out the ring size guide (take care to print it at 100%), and place the existing ring over the circles. Measure the inside of the ring against the outside of the circle. If you can hardly see the black line which goes around each circle, you have chosen the right size. Compare the ring to the adjacent circles to check that you definitely have the right size.
You can then double check this measurement by measuring the inside diameter of the ring, and matching that against the ring diameter measurements shown.
Alternatively, if you don’t have a ring available, you can measure the finger itself to obtain an approximate ring size. You can do so by wrapping a piece of string or thin strip of paper around the finger on which you wish to wear the ring, marking it with a pen where it overlaps. Measure the piece of string with a ruler to obtain the circumference of the finger, and compare that to the European Size measurement shown on the chart. We would recommend that in order to obtain the most accurate measurement when taking your ring size in this way, you do so at the end of the day when the finger is at its largest, and not when your hands are unusually cold as this would lead to a smaller ring size.
