Are Sapphire Diamonds Real

While a diamond is valued for its brilliance, sapphire value is determined by its diamonds and the color. Sapphires are made up of the element corundum, but trace amounts of other elements give them especially vivid colors.

What's the difference between a diamond and a sapphire?

A sapphire is more dense (heavy in mass) than a diamond. So it will look smaller than a one carat diamond even though both have the same weight. The price of this gem also rises drastically once it reaches the 4 carat mark. Opting for a 1 to 2 carat sapphire is a great way to enjoy the remarkable beauty of this stone.
