Yellow sapphire is one of the most precious and sought after gemstone colours. People love to own and wear it because it is believed to bring happiness and well-being to the wearer’s life.

Wellness Meaning

Yellow sapphire has been used for centuries to fight diseases and heal the body. The gemstone can help fight off fevers in the body and support you in recovering from physical ailments such as a sore throat, ear infection, or skin problems like eczema.

Yellow Diamonds

When people think of diamonds, they picture crystal clear diamonds commonly housed in silver, platinum, or gold ring settings. However, diamonds can be found in many other colours – including yellow.

Yellow diamonds are commonly referred to as canary diamonds and can be found in many different types of yellow from pale right through to vibrant yellow.

Nitrogen present in the stone’s formation is what makes a diamond yellow. The vibrancy of the colour depends on the amount of nitrogen present in the stone. White diamonds have very little to no nitrogen and therefore are typically crystal clear in colour. Yellow diamonds are becoming increasingly popular due to their beauty and rarity.

Spiritual Meaning

Yellow diamonds are well-known for their ability to provide clarity and bring positive energy into the body. The wearer of yellow diamonds will be able to clearly see any situation and overcome problems in their life.

Yellow diamonds can also support healing in the body, keeping you at your strongest and healthiest so that you can chase your dreams and achieve what you set out to achieve.

Yellow diamonds are a unique gemstone possessing many health benefits. They have been used for centuries to assist physical healing in the body. The energetic properties of the stone are believed to deliver positive and strengthening energy into the body. This makes them a popular choice for many people. Worn daily you can enjoy many of the benefits for yourself.

Which Yellow Stone is Better?

Value: At first glance, many people assume yellow diamonds and yellow sapphires are the same because they look so similar. However, they are really very different. For one, yellow sapphires are not as expensive or valuable as yellow diamonds. This means they’re a more cost-effective option for those who can’t afford a yellow diamond but wish to achieve the same look.

Strength: Diamonds are well-known for their strength and durability. On the Mohs Scale of Hardness, diamonds are rated a perfect 10. Whereas, sapphires are rated slightly less at 9 out of 10. Although closely competing for the top spot, diamonds definitely win this one and are the better choice for people wanting maximum durability in their jewellery.

Colour: Yellow diamonds tend to keep their colour for longer in comparison to sapphires which can fade in vibrancy over time. To avoid the problem of fading opt for yellow diamonds or purchase yellow sapphires that have not been artificially coloured.

Choosing the right option for you will depend on what you want to gain from the jewellery and your budget. The good news is that both sapphires and diamonds look very similar so whether you’re restricted by budget or not, you can achieve the same beautiful aesthetic.
