Happy Birthday Virgo’s!
Not only are you lucky lot known to be the most intellectual of all the zodiac signs, to possess excellent artistic qualities and demonstrate compassion and understanding but you have the privilege of claiming Sapphire as your birthstone.As one of the most popular Gemstones used in Jewellery, Sapphires are renowned for their deep intense blue colour but can pretty much be found in any hue dependent on the intensity of iron, titanium and chromium levels present. The only exception being red, which would be considered a Ruby.
Sapphires can be formed both naturally and synthetically, the natural sapphire sediments can be found in Eastern Australia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, East Africa and areas of North America including Montana. Synthetic Sapphires are often frowned upon and rejected by jewellers however, the remarkable strength of this gemstone means it can be utilised in scientific instruments and movement bearings in wristwatches!
PS. If you, like myself, are particularly fond of sapphires, but find yourself lumbered with a Birthday in the other eleven months, never fear, Sapphires are also the stone traditionally used in engagement rings and in celebrating 45th wedding anniversaries…
