| Sapphire is a variety of the mineral species of corundum. Most people believe that all sapphires are blue. However, sapphires come in every color. The red variety is known as ruby. Some of the rarest variety actually changes color. Sapphires in vivid colors are green, yellow, orange, pink, purple, violet, brown, black, and gray. Some are, in fact, colorless and others may show a phenomena as an asterism (star) or chatoyancy ("cat's eye"). | |||||||||||||
