Ethically Sourced Sapphire Rings: Introducing the True BlueTM Collection

Brilliant Earth is proud to introduce True Blue sapphires, our new collection of sapphire rings, sapphire pendants and sapphire earrings sourced in accordance with fair trade principles. True Blue sapphire rings sparkle with an intensity all their own, and boast a pure lineage directly from the mines of Australia or Malawi. We partner with a family-owned mine in Australia that unearths, cuts and polishes the sapphires locally. The mine is operated under strict environmental protection standards with full regard to the health and safety of its workers. The sapphires are then paired with eco-friendly gold or platinum to create sapphire rings with the purest of origins.

We invite you to select from a variety of sapphire rings, sapphire pendants or sapphire earrings. All of our sapphire rings and other fine jewelry pieces come with a Certificate of Origin to guarantee their ethical origin in accordance with fair trade principles.

Sapphire Engagement Rings

The True Blue sapphire rings collection includes premium blue sapphire engagement rings, which offer an ethical and distinctive alternative to the traditional diamond to celebrate your commitment. A sapphire engagement ring is a dazzling option to consider, offering great value at a larger size. For extra sparkle, consider adding Canadian diamond accents to your sapphire engagement ring.

The Ethical Sapphire Guarantee

At Brilliant Earth we ensure that each of our True Blue sapphire rings, sapphire earrings, and sapphire pendants have been handled according to strict labor, trade, and environmental protocols. We track our gemstones from the moment they are mined to their final delivery in order to provide genuine, high-quality ethically sourced sapphires. By holding our suppliers to a high ethical standard, we hope to better the lives of those negatively affected by the mining and trade of sapphires and other gemstones. Historically, precious gemstones, such as rubies, sapphires, and emeralds have incurred a great social and environmental cost, stemming from the hazards of mining and their use as currency to fuel violence and corruption. Ultimately, we hope to counter this and create a viable framework for industry accountability that will lead to establishing a market in fair trade jewelry.

Gemstone Mining in Australia

Australia has strict environmental regulations for mining and requires complete land restoration. In many other countries, lack of government regulation and illicit mining activities create significant environmental damage. Australian environmental protection regulations require zero impact on water quality and restoration of all mined land back to original or better condition. As a result, Brilliant Earth's True Blue sapphire rings are guaranteed to meet our high environmental standards.
