MemberMy BF and I have been talking a lot about rings. He asked about using a blue sapphire for a center stone instead of a diamond for something different. I think they are beautiful. It seems as though some are getting away from diamonds and using other stones. I’d love to see your rings. What are your thoughts, opionions?
MemberI absolutely love blue sapphires. My mom upgraded to a sapphire for her 15th anniversary ring a good 15 years ago now, and my e-ring is a blue sapphire too.

MemberI love my sapphire 💙 they come in every colour, blue is just the most popular. I’m a huge fan of hexagon shaped ones also.

MemberI love sapphires! Mine is more of a lighter blue. It’s an ice or Montana blue sapphire!
MemberSapphires and rubies (both corundum) have always been popular for engagement rings. Aside from being beautiful and having a wide range of colors, corundum is a hard stone and can stand up to daily wear. I love blue sapphires but padparadscha sapphires are my favorite. But here is my blue, 3+ carat from Kashmir. The only drawback of sapphires is that they face up smaller than diamond due to the density of corundum.

This is is a blue sapphire halo I tried on when ring shopping! The top is also a sapphire but in peach. I believe the lowest is a Morganite
MemberLove love love my blue sapphire! I feel it has so much character and each stone is visibly unique. Plus I love the bright color! All of these are indoors in natural lighting.
Forgot I still have a photo of the final 2 stones I was deciding between. Eye candy! Again, indoor but natural lighting.
Here is a better photo of my ring in outdoor light:
