Beautiful blue sapphires have been unearthed for over 1000 years in the old Burmese mines, and are a rare occurrence amongst a sea of rubies. Highly coveted for their rich blue hue, the exceptional qualities of these sapphires have led to them becoming one of nature’s most sought after, yet elusive gems.
