History Introduction

All the myths and surrounding beliefs attached to the pink sapphire gemstone, are in fact exactly the same as those attached to the other colours of that gemstone.



Chastity and innocence has been linked to Pink Sapphire Jewellery, such as Pink Sapphire Rings, Pink Sapphire Earrings and Pink Sapphire Pendants, as well as an association with health to the body and mind, truth and preventing travel sickness. Along with happiness, peace and joy, the wearer would also be bestowed enhanced beauty.


It was ground up into a sort of watery paste by the Persian people, who believed that if it was ingested it would act as a general tonic to combat illness and other natural ailments. It could treat nose bleeds, fever, rheumatism and if mixed with vinegar would help resolve eyesight problems. If it was mixed with milk and added to the infected area, it would provide treatment to ulcers and boils.


Some people thought it would prevent suicidal and other such thoughts of the mind. It could stop any chance of being bitten by snakes and other poisonous creatures, and some leaders of of civilizations wore them carved into figures of men or rams to signify their ruling position. To increase the minds and bodies strength for battle, then Ivan The Terrible would make sure both him and his men wore them into battle.


All through the 11th and 12th Century, sorcerers, witches and wizards would try to use the gem as an oracle to see into the future, as well as other links to physic and astrological signs. Some of the beliefs of this time have been carried forward and in fact still practised to this day by linking the stars and the heavens. These people who practise these beliefs are offered protection by this gem. Many civilizations in the Far East, such as China, thought that if this gem was worn on Saturdays it would provide greater wisdom.


Although it was used by wizards, witches and such like to make up potions, it could also be equally used by people to dispel these bad concoctions, and send them directly back from whence they came. If you believed in its spiritual powers and properties, it could provide a safe path in to the universe and provide great protection against any future dangers.


The after life and its connections with various spirits and angels, was understood better with the help of this stone to provide better spiritual awareness. Both the mind and soul could be calmed by it, and the equilibrium between mind and soul was controlled better. Any potential problems regarding mental disorders and diseases could be eliminated, as well any nervous disorders.


My Summary


The pink sapphire is just one of the colours that are found within the sapphire family. These gemstones provide great contrasts to both settings in yellow and white gold, and their fantastic "hot" pink hues look great when accompanied by diamonds. Whatever the style of pink sapphire jewellery you have chosen, please show it off and wear it as much as possible. You both deserve it!
