September Birthstone | Sapphire
Sapphires make stunning gifts for anyone born in September or celebrating a 5th or 45th wedding anniversary.
The name “sapphire” comes from the Latin sapphirus and Greek sappheiros, meaning “blue stone,” though those words may have originally referred to lapis lazuli. Some believe it originated from the Sanskrit word sanipriya which meant “dear to Saturn.”
