Comparing Gemstone Options for Your Perfect Engagement Ring
Diamonds are timeless. Sapphires are vibrant and full of personality. But how do you decide which is right for your engagement ring? At Pel & Co., we help you make that choice with confidence, using heirloom-quality gemstones and in-house craftsmanship.
1. Durability & Everyday Wear
-
Diamonds are the hardest gemstone, making them perfect for daily wear.
-
Sapphires are also extremely durable (9/10 on the Mohs scale) and can withstand everyday life beautifully.
2. Color & Personality
-
Diamonds sparkle in classic white, champagne, or fancy colors.
-
Sapphires range from deep blue to pink, yellow, or even rare teal. Choosing sapphire adds personality and uniqueness to your ring.
3. Symbolism
-
Diamonds symbolize eternal love and commitment.
-
Sapphires represent wisdom, loyalty, and sincerity — a meaningful alternative for couples seeking something distinctive.
4. Cost & Value
-
Depending on size and quality, sapphires can be more affordable than diamonds of comparable beauty.
-
At Pel & Co., sourcing directly from trusted suppliers in the USA ensures luxury-quality gems without the heavy markups.
