Thanks to their durability and impressive hue, sapphires can be set in a wide variety of precious metals. As a cool-toned gem, sapphires work well with similar-toned metals such as platinum, sterling silver or white gold, making them feel more vibrant while highlighting their natural lustre. Rose gold, in particular, is unique and has a romantic sense of opulence when paired with a sapphire.
Yellow gold, meanwhile, can give sapphires a cool, vintage feel and extra warmth. For this reason, gold with sapphire is especially popular. Try pairing gold sapphire earrings with a brighter shade like pink or yellow clothing, or a gold sapphire pendant with striking monochromes like white, grey or black outfits.
Not only is gold and sapphire a beautiful combination, but a durable one. Sapphires are a hard gemstone (second only to diamonds), ensuring a beautiful keepsake piece.
