Sapphire
Best known for their deep blue hues, sapphires also appear in other colours including pink, yellow and orange. Sapphires were once thought to protect the wearer from envy, though we can't guarantee that with our jewellery!

Ruby
The finest rubies have a rich and intense red colour, perhaps explaining why the ancient Hindus described their glow as an inextinguishable fire burning within the stone. Rubies, like sapphires, are from the corundum family and their hardness, second only to diamond, makes both gemstones an excellent choice for a stunning engagement ring.

Emerald
Dedicated by the ancients to Venus the goddess of love, emeralds were believed to symbolise immortality, faith, fertility and life. Emeralds are characteristically marked with inclusions and surface cracks, making a flawless emerald with a deep rich colour the most highly prized of all precious gemstones - likely to out-price even a high quality diamond.
