✦ABOUT PINK SAPPHIRE✦ Always in demand but never in plentiful supply, the popularity of Pink Sapphire is soaring, and has been for some time. Pink Sapphire has recently become incredibly popular and in some instances has demanded a higher price per carat than the much more widely known Ruby.

Pink Sapphires were once even rarer than they are today. Until the late 1990s, deposits had only been found in Sri Lanka, Myanmar (Burma) and just a few other locations around the world, and none of them were producing much in the way of any quantity, leaving the gem out of reach to all but the most wealthy and knowledgeable collectors. Thankfully as the 1990s drew to a close, deposits were found in Madagascar that were not only of a high quality but were also coming out of the ground in enough of a quantity that jewelers around the world could begin to showcase pieces in their display cases, and thus the gem began to grow rapidly in popularity.

Pink Sapphire is associated with the zodiac star signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra and Taurus. In times gone by Pink Sapphire was believed to offer protection from evil and increased physical health and power. Many spiritualists believe that Pink Sapphire can take negative emotions and turn them into positive ones such as love, joy and happiness.

This gem is the birthstone of September and is associated with the Zodiac sign of Taurus. It is also the gift for the 5th, 45th and 70th anniversaries.
