A taste of the stone

September Birthstone Jewellery

Nº 09·Sapphire·Virgo · Libra

Blue first, but not blue only — sapphire runs pink to yellow to the rare padparadscha. Heat treatment is standard and accepted; created sapphire is the honest budget route to an even, vivid blue.

FAQ

Buying September's birthstone

What makes a good September birthstone gift?▾

A sapphire piece is the natural September birthday gift. Pendants and stud earrings are the safest choices — no ring-size guesswork — while a ring or bracelet makes a bigger statement. Every piece here is labelled for exactly what it is (the metal, and whether the stone is natural, lab-created or simulated), so you can match the gift to your budget honestly.

Are lab-created or simulated stones worth buying?▾

Often, yes. A lab-created stone is the same material as a natural one at a fraction of the price; a simulated stone (or CZ / moissanite) only imitates the look. Neither is "fake" when it's sold honestly — so every piece on this shelf is labelled natural, cultured, lab-created, or simulated, and none is passed off as another.

What should you look for when buying sapphire?▾

Sapphire — look for blue; at Mohs 9 it stands up to everyday wear. Above all, check what the piece actually is — solid gold versus plated, natural versus lab-created — which every listing here states plainly.
