Choose emerald and palladium or pearl and rose gold: it's your choice. Mix and match gems and precious metals for a look that's exactly you. It's jewelry for all life's occasions, from an engagement or holiday to your own personal milestones and celebrations. Our brilliant birthday jewelry suggestions will make this year a celebration to remember. Gemvara uses only the highest quality materials to craft your sapphire vintage-inspired jewelry design with meticulous attention to detail. Our precious metals are recycled or responsibly mined. Sapphire is a very durable gem that wears well over generations. Sapphire is the gem of the soul, a symbol of truth and faith. Sapphire comes in blue, of course, but also pink, yellow and white, which are known as fancy sapphire. Our wide selection of sapphire vintage-inspired jewelry by Carl Ansley, Judy Evans, Gary Stucchi, and other talented designers means you can find jewelry that's exactly your style. You can also shop by style, choosing our Key, Romantic, or Fashion-Forward Collections. If you love vintage jewelry but have a modern fast-paced lifestyle, our vintage-inspired designs give you the best of both worlds: modern quality construction and comfort with the detailed design and hand craftsmanship of the past. Gemvara's fine quality sapphire vintage-inspired jewelry is designed to be passed down for generations to come, crafted by hand in the United States.

Sapphire is the gemstone of truth. In ancient times, a gift of a sapphire was a pledge of honesty and devotion. Kate Middleton's sapphire engagement ring is the latest in a long tradition of royal sapphires. When shopping for sapphire jewelry, the most important factors to consider are quality, color and cut of the sapphire. The more vibrant and bright the hue, the more valuable the sapphire will be. Also, the larger the carat weight, the more the sapphire will cost per carat. Before their final polish, most sapphires are heat-enhanced to almost 2,000 degrees in order to improve the color and clarity. This stable treatment does not require special care and does not reduce the gem's value. Sapphire is the September birthstone, the 5th and 45th wedding anniversary gem, and the zodiac gem for Virgo. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality sapphire will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine sapphire jewelry is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
