Sapphires are Timeless
Sapphire engagement rings are not just popular today, they were popular two centuries ago as well. In his early days, Napoleon was a soldier and wasn’t affluent, yet he chose to spend his life-savings on a blue sapphire ring for his heartthrob Josephine. The inverted pear-shaped sapphire was set with an upright pear cut diamond in a halo of small diamonds which later became extremely popular in the 18th Century. That ring style is known as ‘you and me’.
