Blue Sapphire -, which is derived from the story that sapphire itself could have sacred power of knowledge given by the holy God.
Sapphire has a meaning of blue in Greek, Latin, Hebrew. “Blue color” reminds us of a blue sky. It is noted in the ancient Old Testament that blue sapphire has the most refined and noble status among the gems, and as if the transparent beauty could be just a heavenly body. Since ancient times it has been regarded as a royal jewel because only kings and highly ranked priests had utilized its denotative dignity, which is derived from the story that sapphire itself could have sacred power of knowledge given by the holy God.
Sapphire might had been utilized as the tablet of 10 commandments. It is also in Greek mythology that sapphire had a power which could answer a person’s prayer of love with all one’s heart.

I heard about beautiful story of “Blue Sapphire” from Sri Lanka, which was presented to Princess Catherine by Prince William for their Royal Wedding.
To Her Majesty The Queen ,The President of Sri Lanka had presented “Blue Sapphire” when The Queen visited Sri Lanka and later which was handed over to The Prince Charles to The Prince Williams. It is noted that the sapphire has aesthetic brilliancy, gorgeously decorated with Diamonds.
As it is told in ancient times that the person, owning the larger blue sapphire could be the closer one to the holly G_d, Sapphire has been regarded as sacredly admired gems which bring happiness. This is the reason why there is a tradition of “something blue” in the marriage ceremony that a bride must wear “something blue” color item with her. Ancient princess had succeeded the fantastic tradition, and in modern times, daughters from European noble families wear wedding dress with the underwear sewed up by“ blue sapphire”, wishing eternal happiness.
We sincerely congratulate The Royal wedding of Duck and Duchness of Cambridge, and Their Royal highness eternal Love and happiness with Blue Sapphire could illuminate veritable grace and beauty in all over the world with full of roses in United Kingdom.
