Amanda’s Style File: Sapphires for September
The month’s birthstone is vibrant in every color.
This rainbow sapphire tennis bracelet by Suzanne Kalan ($16,000) is one of 20 pieces in this Amanda’s Style File celebrating the September birthstone.
Sapphires are spectacular and so are the people who are lucky enough to have sapphires as their birthstone.
Sapphires have long been known as one of the primary four “precious” gemstones. It makes sense that precious is defined as an object that is rare, has great value, and should be treated with care.
Beloved for their durability and rich, vibrant color palette, sapphires are a go-to gemstone for jewelry that can be worn every day, as well as show-stopping, one-of-a-kind pieces of jewelry.
The color variation is what gives this Style File such vibrance. Rich blue sapphires are classic, classy, and easily identified as special specimens.
Light, pastel sapphires are sweet and the new quiet luxury. Vibrantly saturated and rainbow sapphires are attention-grabbing in every good way.
There are so many ways so show love for sapphires. Here are 20 Amanda’s Style File selects to celebrate this month.
