Sapphires belong to the exclusive family of Precious Stones along with Rubies, Emeralds, and, of course, Diamonds.
Since Antiquity, Sapphires are particularly appreciated for their brilliance and unique colors.
In jewelry, the hardness of a stone is essential. For sapphires, their hardness is evaluated at 9, so they remain ideal for everyday use.

All our diamonds are natural and selected by us, and sorted one by one, to guarantee you an exceptional brilliance.
Our paving diamonds always have an "excellent" cut, an "F" color, and a minimum "VS" clarity.
The value of a diamond is defined by 4 criteria: the '' 4C ''
The Cut , It is a less often mentioned criterion, which is, however, fundamental to optimize the brilliance of a diamond: a colorless and very pure diamond will be dull if it is not cut correctly.
The Color is qualified by a letter from D to Z.
Why D? Because it is the D of Diamond that qualifies the best color, a completely colorless white.
The Clarity makes it possible to differentiate between inclusions Invisible to the naked eye and which do not affect the brilliance of diamonds: IF, VVSI, VSI, and SI.
Only Clarity grades I1, I2, and I3 have a substantial impact on the brilliance of the diamond.
The Weight is expressed in Carat, one carat = 0.20g. The larger a diamond, the rarer it is, the more expensive it is per carat.
Introduced in 1953 by the GIA (Gemological Institute of America), this diamond grading system has now become a globally accepted standard.
The GIA is the leading world authority in gemology.
