Types of Sapphire Earrings
Blue sapphire earrings are the most enduringly sought variety, and with good reason. The blue of a fine natural sapphire has a depth and richness that suits both formal and everyday wear, and works equally well in yellow gold, white gold, and platinum settings. From deep royal blue to bright cornflower, the range within blue sapphire alone is considerable, and each tone produces a different character in the finished piece.
Natural pink sapphire earrings offer a palette that runs from the most delicate pale blush through to saturated vivid pink - each shade producing a distinctly different aesthetic. Pink sapphires suit rose gold and white gold particularly well, and their colour makes them a versatile choice for both everyday wear and more formal occasions. A genuinely romantic option that is neither predictable nor conventional.
Teal sapphire earrings have grown considerably in demand among those seeking something individual and contemporary. The blue-green colour of teal sapphire sits apart from both classic blue and green, and shifts subtly with the light in a way that makes it particularly appealing in earrings, where the stone is seen in motion and in varying light throughout the day. Many of our teal sapphires are sourced from Australian mines, giving them a provenance as distinctive as their colour.
Luminous and warm, yellow sapphire earrings range from pale lemon through to deep golden tones approaching orange. Their warmth makes them a natural pairing with yellow gold, producing a combination that is vivid, confident, and entirely natural. Yellow sapphires suit a wide range of skin tones and work as well for everyday wear as they do for more considered occasions.
