Coloured Gemstone Information:
Sapphire is the usual name for transparent corundum. Corundum is the mineralogical name for aluminium oxide. The usual colour associated with sapphire is blue, but sapphire can be almost any colour due to the process of isomorphism.
Isomorphous replacement is the replacement of certain elements in a gemstone by another element of the same valency, without the gemstone changing in form. The word isomorph comes from iso (same) and morph (form). Thus although the chemical makeup of the gemstone changes the crystal form does not.
Corundum can be colourless, red, pink, blue, black, brown, orange, yellow, green, indigo, violet, or mauve. Red corundum and most pink corundum is called ruby, blue corundum is called sapphire, and other colours are also called sapphire, usually with the colour specified as a prefix to the word sapphire, for example, yellow sapphire.
Pure corundum is colourless, often called white, and although quite rare, tends not to be valuable because it does not have much brilliance. Colours, as in many gemstones, are caused by small amounts of impurity, usually metallic oxides. This is definitely a case where impurity is desirable.
Gemstone Notes
- All sapphires are natural gemstones. Sapphire comes in many different colours due to the process of isomorphism.
- All diamonds are natural gemstones. Diamond quality - G (Fine White) colour and SI (Slightly Included) clarity.
- All jewellery is 18ct yellow or white gold.
