Sapphire is the birthstone of September. The blue variety is considered a stone of truth, wisdom and protection and has long been a favourite of kings and royalty, adored for its royal blue colouring which was considered a reflection of the sky and the heavens, making it divine.

The pendant has a fabulous, open-work design with milgrain edging and flowing motifs fashioned in 18ct white and yellow gold. It dates to the early 20^th Century and is accompanied by a fine 9ct white gold cable chain complete with an ornate fish-hook clasp crowned with a single diamond in the middle.
