Antidote for Poison

Sapphires have been used to decorate royal crowns, gowns, jewelry and robes for as long as we know.

And, let’s be honest, can you blame them for preferring these astonishing, jaw-dropping jewels?

Since the olden ages, sapphires have been believed to protect royal families from harm, envy and bad spirits.

Blue sapphires were even thought to be an antidote for poison. No wonder they would adorn stunning sapphires everywhere!

Not All Sapphires Are Blue.

The British Royal Family in particular has an obsession with sapphires.

Not only are the crown jewels speckled with sapphires, it’s also a favorite gemstone among many of the royal family members.

Queen Elizabeth II herself must've held the record for the most sapphire brooches in the world—she seemed to have one for every occasion.
