Did you know that Sapphire comes in every single color of the rainbow including black, brown, and gray? In fact, the gemstone we call Ruby is actually a red variety of Corundum, which is the mineral name of Sapphire. The blue variety is always called Sapphire, while the other colors (except for red) are called Fancy Sapphires. What trace elements cause the other colors in Corundum? Let’s find out!
· Blue: Iron & Titanium
· Red (Ruby) and Pink: Chromium. The more Chromium is present, the deeper the color will be. Lighter amounts make it pink!
· Orange: Chromium & Iron
· Yellow & Green: Iron. The more Iron is present, the greener it will be. Lighter amounts make it yellow!
· Purple: Chromium, Iron, & Titanium
Sapphire is not only a beautiful gemstone, but it is also very durable making it perfect as a colorful diamond replacement in an engagement ring. There aren’t any other gemstones besides Diamond that can stand the test of time like Sapphire (or Ruby) can.
