Just Peachy: What is a peach sapphire?
The peach sapphire happens to be one of the most sought after and rarest shades of sapphire out there. This stone is typically found in places such as Sri Lanka, Madagascar, and Tanzania. The peach sapphire, also known as the champagne sapphire, has trace elements of iron and chromium, which is what gives the stone their pinkish-orange hue that glimmers in all types of light.
Typically known for being paired with a rose gold band, the peachy stone looks just as great with any other colored band, but it’s all about preference. This unique diamond-alternative became trendy a few years ago and it still is a favorite among many because it looks lovely paired with many pastel colors.
Peach sapphires are also known to symbolize emotions of love, creativity, and acceptance. Isn’t that just sweet as a peach?! Although there are so many to choose from, one of our favorite rings that features a peach sapphire is our sparkly and classic Rosados Box Skinny Lois 1.26cts & Tiffani 14kt Rose Gold Oval Peach Champagne Sapphire Diamonds Wedding Set.

Pretty in Pink: What is a morganite?
Pretty, delicate, and pink. That sounds like a lovely combination, right? Morganites are gorgeous gemstones that range in a few different shades of pink but the most popular, and common, shade tends to be on the lighter peachy pink side.
In order to get this blush color, the stone is typically heat-treated to get rid of the orange or yellow tint that some stones have in them. This rare semi-precious stone is a fan favorite for those who want something other than your typical diamond.
A little fun fact is that morganites are known to carry the energy of compassion and divine love. Gifting a ring to the one you love with this stone is sure to show them how much you really mean to them. Our Rosados Box Cinderella 10x8mm 14kt Rose Gold Oval Morganite Diamonds Cluster 3 Stone Engagement Ring is magical in its own right featuring various textures and shapes.
