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.
