the yellow sapphire mystery

We have been in the industry for over twenty years and although we don't claim to know it all we believe to have our fair share of knowledge. Until we had a client that was adamant he have a 4+ carat untreated natural yellow sapphire in a round, oval or cushion shape. We deal with specific requests often and we tailor to all sorts of client drivin guidelines but we found this request ultra specific. The mystery of these requests left us researching the mythology of the beautiful yellow sapphire.

The yellow sapphire is regarded as the best of gemstones much like Jupiter is regarded as the teacher of all gods. Jupiter represents wisdom, religion and wealth. It focuses on what one wants to achieve in life.  The wearer of yellow sapphire gets the knowledge of law, ethics, wit, wisdom, worldly happiness and mental peace. It is most beneficial to authors, writers and businessmen. The yellow sapphire energizes the concentration of the mind and gives warmth and protection to relationship. It can be used in healing various diseases like arthritis, heart problems and impotency. In Hindu traditions the yellow Sapphire is worn for marriage, boy or girl who are not married or their marriage is delayed for any reasons shall wear Yellow Sapphire. It is also worn for conjugal bliss.

Yellow sapphires are worn in Hindu and Vedic traditions. In both beliefs the yellow sapphire is used to bring great wealth and prosper to new marriage and business ventures. There are several recommendations to bring the most success to the wearer but both traditions have the same guideline to success:

• The bearer should start wearing the yellow sapphire on a Thursday within an hour of sunrise.
• Sapphire must be natural; no colour or heat treating.
• The yellow sapphire should be a minimum of 2 carats but 4 carats is ideal.
• If the yellow sapphire is being set into jewelry, it must be set in gold. 
• If the sapphire is set into a ring, it must be worn on the index finger of the right hand.
• The yellow sapphire must be of extremely high quality.
