This sapphire carries a lineage of meaning that stretches back through centuries of human admiration for colored stones.

Green and yellowish green tones have often been associated with renewal, fertility, and a harmonious balance between earth and sky, echoing the traditional uses of similar gemstones by cultures that prized stones for their perceived ability to bring clarity of purpose and calm.
