There are only a few yellow gemstones: yellow sapphire and yellow diamond. The others are fine stones, such as yellow topaz or yellow tourmaline. A yellow sapphire engagement ring is an original ring. The ideal is to have it custom-made, a service we offer for your rings in Paris and Angers.
Apart from aesthetic preference, a good reason to opt for a yellow sapphire ring is that creativity is almost infinite with this robust stone. We can design and manufacture a yellow sapphire and diamond ring, but this gem can be combined on the same piece of jewelry with green, orange or pink stones, such as pink sapphire.
When it comes to metal, yellow gold sapphire rings are superb classics. However, a yellow sapphire looks great on a white gold ring, and rose gold offers a delightful contrast.
As well as creating rings in Paris and Angers, we can appraise your gemstones. The price of yellow sapphire depends on the number of carats and the quality. As a result, large yellow sapphires are cheaper than smaller, higher-quality stones.
The term "quality" conceals a complex reality in gemmology. It includes criteria of clarity and color. For the appraisal of a yellow sapphire, hue is an absolutely essential element.
Canary-yellow stones are highly prized and not the most expensive sapphires. The purer a stone, i.e. with no inclusions visible to the naked eye, the higher its value. Imperfections can affect a stone's brilliance. They can be appreciated for jewelry, but yellow sapphires with greenish or orange hues are less expensive.
Intense shades are more sought-after. In any case, most of the time, yellow sapphire is less expensive than diamond and blue sapphire.
A gemmologist can often tell the difference, visually, between yellow sapphire and other yellow stones, but tests may be necessary, for example, to recognize a yellow sapphire from a yellow diamond and, above all, from an imitation. Gemology tests can also be used to detect possible treatments.
Yellow sapphire is generally less saturated than its cousins, such as green sapphire. It is light, very light, acid yellow, slightly orange... The hues are varied and may evoke other yellow stones, such as citrine, but not the rest: the physical properties of corundum, the sapphire family, are different from those of quartz. The brilliance is not at all the same.
For your jewelry needs in Paris or Angers, maison Bonnot sources its gemstones through a short supply chain. The absence of intermediaries gives us maximum control over quality and traceability. We can offer a variety of yellow sapphires to suit all tastes, and demonstrate a high level of transparency. Each stone is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Most yellow sapphires are mined in Sri Lanka, Madagascar and Australia, although several other countries have sapphire mines, notably Thailand. Sri Lankan sapphires are particularly renowned for their quality.
While blue sapphire is associated with wisdom, tranquility and fidelity, the significance of yellow sapphire is more focused on energy, joy and vitality. These positive virtues often make yellow sapphire jewelry a good-luck charm.
