Natural and Treated Sapphires
Yellow sapphires, and many other colored gemstones, are usually heat treated to enhance the natural color of the stone. This is done by heating the sapphires to a certain temperature, and then cooling the stones very carefully. As a result of the heating process the stones have deeper and stronger colors. In addition to the richer colors, any unwanted color tones in the sapphires are masked.
Engagement rings with yellow sapphire stones are available as natural or heat treated. Heat treating is a standard practice in jewelry making and certainly should not be considered a negative. It is possible to find natural gemstones that have the deep intense color of heat treated gemstones; however, this type of gemstone does command a higher price.
Yellow Sapphire Natural Unheated Engagement Rings
There are many spectacular engagement rings with natural unheated yellow sapphires. Jewelry stores and online jewelry sites will always state that the stone has not been treated. A vast selection of exquisite engagement rings with beautiful unheated yellow sapphires can be found at My Jewelry Source.
Yellow Sapphires - A Perfect Engagement Ring Choice
Since ancient times, a sapphire has symbolized sincerity, truth, loyalty, and faithfulness. This precious gemstone makes an excellent choice for an engagement ring, as it has been the long-standing choice of both kings and high priests. Referred to as the eternal blaze, a yellow sapphire brings good fortune and success to its wearer.
