Sapphire and Diamond Rings

Anyone can wear a sapphire and diamond ring—especially those with an appreciation for classical elegance and regal beauty.  

Sapphires and diamonds are an iconic pairing. Besides being precious gemstones, they complement each other beautifully when set together. Diamond and sapphire engagement rings make a luxurious statement, with the brightness of the diamond and the rich blue hue of the sapphire providing the perfect contrast.

Men’s diamond and sapphire rings are also a timeless choice. A men's sapphire and diamond band in a bezel setting can exude strength while offering a modern twist on a classic favourite.

Engagement rings are often synonymous with diamonds, though rings crafted with gemstones like emerald, ruby and sapphire are also a timeless and precious choice for your forever-piece. 

Worn most famously by Princess Diana in the early 1980s, many have fallen in love with diamond and blue sapphire engagement rings for their strength, timeless sophistication and shared symbolism celebrating eternal love. 

Other classic designs, like a round or a square sapphire ring with diamonds, are also loved for their elegant, old-world feel. A diamond and sapphire band or rings featuring a more elaborate aesthetic, like a pavé or bubble ring, offer an intricate statement. 

A sapphire can add a unique element to your ring by offering a splash of colour and a bold contrast between gemstones, with the brilliance of the diamonds making the deep, velvety blue of a sapphire appear more vibrant.

As well as being one of the most iconic gemstone combinations, sapphires and diamonds are among some of the most versatile gemstones to match with different looks and trends.  

Echo the design of your ring with other accessories. For example, pair yellow gold diamond and sapphire rings in a halo setting with matching sapphire earrings or a bubble ring with huggies. Highlight the beautiful blue hues of a white gold sapphire ring with diamonds with a small pendant or a pair of stud earrings, or the diamond accents of a halo sapphire ring with diamond studs.  

Complementing your sapphire and diamond ring with jewellery pieces featuring other gemstones can also create a harmonious connection between accessories. A blue topaz pendant or an aquamarine bracelet will highlight your sapphire’s blue hue, while contrasting gemstones like emerald or ruby create a striking look. 

Wearing a sapphire ring can carry a variety of meanings, both personal and symbolic, depending on cultural, historical, and individual contexts. Here are some common interpretations:

• Symbol of royalty and nobility: Historically, sapphires have been associated with royalty and nobility. They were often worn by kings and queens as a symbol of wisdom, virtue, and good fortune.

• Representation of fidelity and sincerity: Sapphires are commonly thought to symbolise loyalty and faithfulness, making them a popular choice for engagement rings and other romantic gifts.

• September birthstone: For those born in September, a sapphire ring holds special significance as it is their birthstone. It's believed to bring them good luck and protection.

• Forty-fifth wedding anniversaries: Sapphire rings are traditional gifts for the forty-fifth wedding anniversary, symbolising a long-lasting and prosperous marriage.

• Fashion statement: Beyond symbolism, sapphires are prized for their stunning beauty and range of colours, making them a fashionable and elegant choice for jewellery.

The meaning of wearing a sapphire ring can also be deeply personal. It might represent a significant occasion, a cherished memory, or a personal achievement. The beauty of gemstone jewellery is that it allows for individual expression, whether grounded in tradition or personal sentiment.
