    About White Sapphire

    About White Sapphire

    White sapphire is a gem-quality colorless corundum that’s mainly known for its soft white color. The gem is the only color variety of sapphire that doesn’t owe its color to any trace element. This distinguishes white sapphire from other fancy sapphires, including pink, orange, green, brown and golden amber, to name a few.

    Color of White Sapphire

    Known for its cloudy appearance and coveted for its icy white glow, the white sapphire stone has a milky white color. A Refractive Index of 1.77 is the reason behind its somewhat cloudy & milky appearance which is appealing in its own way. White sapphire is an excellent option for those looking for a gemstone with subtle sparkle because of its delicate brilliance. Over the years, white sapphire stones have gained ground as an affordable substitute of diamond.

    Hardness of White Sapphire

    White sapphire scores a terrific 9 on the 10-point Mohs scale of hardness. This toughness of white sapphires makes them perfect for both low and high contact jewelry items. White sapphire earrings and white sapphire necklaces are low contact jewelry pieces which anyone can go for without worrying much about the hardness of the stone. The soft white glow and impressive hardness on the Mohs scale together have prepared the ground for the popularity of white sapphire engagement rings in recent times. Couples eyeing a subtle centerpiece for their engagement ring find white sapphires just the right pick.

    Price of White Sapphire

    Sapphire is one of the ‘Big Four’ gems and despite being a rare variety of sapphire, white sapphire doesn’t break the bank. The modest prices of white sapphire can be attributed to the gem’s lesser-known status. The ascension of blue sapphire in the eye of gem lovers has somehow drastically affected the popularity of other color varieties of sapphire. Here, you will find a huge collection of white sapphire gemstones for sale with prices starting from a few hundred dollars per carat.

    Symbolism of White Sapphire

    Sapphire is the birthstone for those born in September and as such white sapphire completely fits the bill like any other variety of sapphire stone. In the world of astrology, white sapphire is associated with Venus and thus represents love, beauty and successful partnership. Unlike some colored varieties of sapphire, white sapphire is said to be auspicious for everyone irrespective of the person’s astrological disposition.
