Green Sapphire Gems and Jewelry - Green with Envy
Green is one of the less commonly seen shades of sapphire. Some of the finest green sapphires come from Sri Lanka, although these stones are extremely rare. Striking examples are also found in rich blue-greens and shades of teal. Yellower stones shading towards olive green and chartreuse are more common.
Green sapphires of good color and clarity are usually found in smaller sizes. Fine stones larger than 10 carats are scarce. When we come across a striking green sapphire we usually cannot resist.
Sapphire Story
Vibrant Colors
Sapphire () is a gemstone variety of the mineral corundum, an aluminium oxide (?-Al2O3), when it is a color other than red, in which case the gem would instead be a ruby. Trace amounts of other elements such as iron, titanium, or chromium can give corundum blue, yellow, pink, purple, orange, or greenish color. Pink-orange corundum are also sapphires, but are instead called padparadscha.
Because it is a gemstone, sapphire is commonly worn as jewelry. Sapphire can be found naturally, or manufactured in large crystal boules. Because of its remarkable hardness, sapphire is used in many applications, including infrared optical components, watch crystals, high-durability windows, and wafers for the deposition of semiconductors.
