Sapphire necklace button 4-5 mm faceted - 925 silver

Sapphire appears in this gemstone necklace as a finely faceted button chain of 4–5 mm in deep, rich cornflower blue – one of the most coveted shades in the world of gemstones. Each button-shaped stone shimmers in a slightly different shade of blue, from delicate light blue to intense dark blue, making this necklace a truly unique piece of jewelry. Sapphire belongs to the corundum group (Al₂O₃) and, with a Mohs hardness of 9, is one of the hardest natural minerals. The blue color is created by traces of titanium and iron in the crystal lattice – ranging from delicate light blue to the sought-after cornflower blue depending on the concentration. Sapphire includes all corundum varieties except red (ruby) – it also exists in pink, yellow, orange, green, and colorless (leucosapphire). It crystallizes in the trigonal system and sometimes exhibits asterism (star effect). Its name comes from the Greek "sappheiros" (blue). Deposits: Sri Lanka (Ceylon sapphire), Myanmar, Kashmir, Madagascar, Australia, Thailand.

Significance in crystal healing

In crystal healing, sapphire is considered a stone of wisdom, inner clarity, and mental strength. Hildegard von Bingen described it as strengthening the nerves and clarifying the mind. It is said to enhance concentration and focus, promote wisdom and integrity, and protect against negative influences. It is associated with the brow and throat chakras. These attributions are based on long-standing tradition and are not scientifically proven. They are not a substitute for medical treatment.
