Sapphires come only in blue.
No, actually. Though blue is the most common and often what people think of when they hear "sapphire jewelery", natural sapphires actually come in different shades. Most naturally white sapphires come from regions such as Africa. Southeast Asia and Middle East. Pure white sapphires, which are usually made from yellow or grey sapphires, can also be created. They undergo chemical or heating treatment to remove the color.
You can find sapphire gems in many different colors including grey, peach or pink, or green, blue, purple, yellow and more. The mix of different trace element found in corundum is what gives the gems their different colors. A stone containing more copper or magnesium, for example, may have a color different from a sapphire with more iron.

The 4 C's are often used to evaluate a gemstone, but sapphires are evaluated in a slightly different way. Obviously, these factors remain important. Considerations like the quality of the sapphire stone, the shade of color and the level of saturation are also considered. As beauty is subjective to the individual, the choice of color is also. It is possible that you find one shade of bright blue beautiful while someone else finds a different, lighter shade more appealing.
