"I have always wanted a circle pendant but I wanted something different and I love different color sapphires. This slide is absolutely stunning! I have been shopping with JTV for about 7 years and with the exception of a couple of different items this by far is the best one yet. It is a little smaller then the picture shows but when I put it on the size was actually perfect, very classy looking. The sapphires are stunning and have so much sparkle and pop I can not believe it. This slide went far beyond my expectations and I am so very happy I was able to purchase it. The price can not be beat. Its weight and size are perfect, the white gold is a good color, and the stones are beautiful. It is a perfect match of green and pink together and I was not expecting something this beautiful with White Gold and sapphires at this price. I recommend this to everyone and I am very picky. If you put it up right against your eyes you can see some of the stones do not match perfectly in shape however NOONE is going to see it unless they come up to you with a magnifying glass! I do not compliment jewelry the way I have with this slide but it is truly amazing and the picture does not do it justice at all. Thank you JTV if you don't sell out of these I will be buying one for my mother who loves the combination of pink and green and it is perfect because it pops with the color but still keeps a "softness" about it. I am still amazed and can not stop looking at it and I hope you make more items like this at this price. I now have a beautiful piece of jewelry at a price that I am shocked with and have shopped with you for a long time. Thank you so much."

"This little slide really sparkles and is an affordable way to give a September baby a birthstone gift. The chain is pretty but could be a bit more substantial."

"I bought this for one of my best friends who's daughter is a September baby (therefore this is her birthstone.) The slide is beautiful. Nice Spring-y colors. The only thing I'd change is I would like the stones to be a little darker. However, this is a nice departure from the traditional blue sapphires and my friend loved it. Hopefully one day she'll pass it down to her little girl."

Fast Facts
| The name sapphire may derive from the Greek Sanskrit sanipriya, meaning “dear to the planet Saturn.” |
| Sapphire appears in a rainbow range of breathtaking hues. |
| Most expensive and sought after fancy color of sapphire might be the padparadscha sapphire. Padparadscha means lotus blossom in a Malaysian language---and is the color of these beautiful peach-orangey-pink stones. |
| Due to its hardness, brilliance and variety, some experts consider Sapphire to be the most important and most versatile of the gem families. |
Some of the most desired sapphires come from Kashmir, India. |

While sapphire and ruby are both corundum, they are distinguished by color. All red corundum are ruby. Everything else is sapphire. While sapphire can come in a variety of color, it is most noted for the color blue, “cornflower blue” in particular. Sapphires other than blue are often referred to as “fancy sapphire.” While there is a wide range of color, the most popular colors include padparadscha (a light to medium toned, orange pink), pink sapphire and orange sapphire.
Color
Sapphire, known for its beautiful “cornflower blue” color, also comes in a wide range of colors.
Hardness and Durability
Like rubies, sapphires are one of the hardest and most durable materials on earth. At 9 on Mohs’ scale of gemstone hardness, sapphires are second only to diamonds in hardness.


History
The history of sapphire can be a little confusing because it has often been confused with other stones like lapis lazuli. It wasn’t until the early 1800s that sapphire and ruby were recognized as being the family of corundum. The name sapphire may derive from the Greek Sanskrit sanipriya, meaning “dear to the planet Saturn.” Its deep blue color seems to embody the deep blue sky.
Legend suggests that the Ten Commandments were inscribed on sapphire. Of course, due to its hardness that would be a miracle indeed. Various cultures have treasured the beauty and virtues of sapphire. Ancient Egyptian physicians prescribed grinding it and forming a wash to help the eyes. It was also prescribed for indigestion, scorpion bites, boils, and more.
The Christian church also valued its presence. Pope Innocent II required all bishops to wear sapphire rings on their hand of blessing. And some writers have suggested that it is one of the foundation stones mentioned in Revelation, representing the apostle Paul because of his mystic encounter in the third heavens.


Some of the most desired sapphires come from Kashmir, India. Other key mining areas include Sri Lanka, Mogok, Chantabun and Kanchanaburi (Thailand) and even Montana. Other deposits include Brazil, China, Cambodia, Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, Zimbabwe and Tanzania.


When you first start shopping for sapphires, try to look at a wide selection of stones. Train your eye to notice things you like and dislike. When you’re ready to shop, you might want to decide upon a price range.
Heat Treatments
You should probably assume your sapphire has been heated. A sapphire that has not been heat treated is extremely rare and would be very expensive.
Inclusions
Most sapphire contain some inclusions, so unless you are willing to pay the exorbitant price for a stone free of inclusions, look for a stone that looks clean to the naked eye.


Cleaning sapphires is easy. Due to their hardness and durability, almost any cleaning technique is acceptable. For specific gemstone details, see our Gemstone Enhancement Chart. Normal Care includes:
Maintain their beauty by cleaning your gems
On sapphires, you can normally use ultrasonic cleaners, steamers, sudsy water, and brushes.
Check stone mounts
Sapphires are more durable the metal mounts on your jewelry, so have the prongs checked occasionally to assure a tight fit.
Avoid wearing gems during strenuous exercise
A well-placed blow could damage the beauty of stone, so it is safest to store them while engaging in any activity where they might be subject to high impact.
Do not handle jewelry by the stone
You don’t want to loosen a stone from the mount and take a chance of eventually losing it if the stone falls out.
Store gemstones separately
Sapphires are harder than others and a hard stone can actually scratch a softer stone.
