About blue sapphire

Gifting

Gems are given at birthdays and milestones, and are most appreciated when the recipient's chart has been considered.

Each gem has its own shade, clarity and inclusions; a small difference from the photos is to be expected. Colour can also look different under daylight and indoor light. If you need a certificate or treatment information for this gem, please ask before ordering.

Trust note: gem, cut, weight options; certificate absence stated plainly.

FAQs

How do I choose the weight?

Weight is a matter of budget, the size you want and, for astrological use, your astrologer's advice. There is a familiar body-weight rule for Ratti, but astrologers do not all follow it.

Which planet is Blue Sapphire linked to?

In Jyotish, blue sapphire is linked with Shani (Saturn).

Should I wear it without consulting an astrologer?

Gemstone astrology holds that the right stone depends on your chart. Many people consult an astrologer first; you can also book an astrological report on Brahmatells.
