Since  medieval  times,  sapphire  has  been
               associated        with     the      majesty       and
               tranquility  of  the  heavens.  Because  they
               believed it symbolized heaven.

               The clergies in the middle Ages wore blue
               sapphires.  Kings  and  queens  wore  it  to
               attract  wealth  and  for  protection.  It  was
               thought  by  many  to  dispel  evil  thoughts
               and  to  bring  peace  and  amiability  to  its
               wearer  as  well  as  ward  off  illness  and
               overcome poisons.

               Around        1800,      sapphire       and     ruby
               gemstones        were      both     classified      as
               varieties  of  the  mineral  corundum.
               Because  of  that,  the  red  of  ruby  is  the
               only  color  not  found  in  varieties  of
               sapphire.


               Due  to  its  level  of  hardness  sapphire  is
               also  used  for  shatter-resistant  windows,
               crystals  in  wristwatches  and  electronic
               circuitry including integrated circuits and
               LEDs.
