How to Clean Sapphire

Sapphires are the birthstone for the month of and come in a wide variety of colors including blue, pink, orange, and golden-yellow. The color of your sapphire won’t affect your cleaning method. Sapphires score a 9 out of 10 on the Mohs Scale of Mineral Hardness, which means it is a strong stone. Although this durable stone easily stands up to the rigors of everyday wear, a sapphire, like any other gemstone, can chip and crack due to a blunt impact.
