However, many very dark hues of blue sapphires often almost mimic the characteristics and colours and can be passed off as black sapphires. Part of the precious gemstones category similar to diamonds, rubies and emeralds, Black Sapphires are very hard gemstones but reflect little to no light resulting in less lustre. However, the allure of black sapphires lies in it’s rarity and that not many jewellers work with this precious gemstone. Our artisans pride itself in crafting beautiful masterpieces using this special gemstone.
Viktor Alexander specializes in sourcing and cutting various hues of sapphires from ethically and credibly mines to ensure that gemstones used within our products are conflict free and ethically produced to international luxury standards.
