Why is the sky blue? Ancient Persians had a great answer for this eternal childhood query. It stems from a tale wherein a huge pedestal supporting the Earth is surrounded by many chips from the wear and tear of time. These pedestal chips are blue sapphires and reflections of light off of them make the sky appear blue to the people on Earth. This 1.03ctw big sky beauty could be all the proof we need.

Along with being seen as a sacred gem, sapphires were seen as a healing stone—from antidote ingredients to eyeball fixers. In fact, Charles V was known to wear a sapphire ring and would touch people’s eyes with it in an attempt to rid them of whatever eye diseases ailed them. While Charles’ move might seem a little creepy in our modern times, he wasn’t just some kooky old king: Pontiffs had similar items that they used in much the same way. Ancient Egyptians are on record as doing the same. Kings even often wore sapphires around their necks to protect them from harm. The stone was really known around town as THE cureall.

This perfect blue stone looks like she has the cure. Wrapped in smooth 14K yellow gold, she is a never take off sort of babe.
