Description Green sapphire gemstone necklace set in a handmade silver setting with a hammered circle surround. This sapphire is a pretty light olive green colour and measures 2.8mm.  Its a round faceted gem set in a rubover style setting which means the silver is pushed over the gem keeping it secure. This gemstone is the birthstone of September and the gem for a 45th and 65th wedding anniversary. Surrounded by a hammered circle this pendant has been handmade in sterling silver; the hammered effect adds a touch of sparkle as the silver moves in the light. Suspended from 2 links at the top to a silver belcher link style chain. I offer 18, 20 or 22 inch or an extender option that you can wear at different lengths and you can choose your chain length preference from the drop down menu. The pendant measures approx 17mm across the centre and approx 25mm from the top of the double loop to the bottom. This item will be dispatched in a box tied with a ribbon ready for gifting. Gemstone and Materials Sapphires and rubies are in the same family known as corundum and any colour gem within this group other than the red of ruby is classed as a sapphire. This particular sapphire is a pretty light olive green colour; a gorgeous option for anyone that would like a sapphire in a different colour way to the more traditional blues. Pure corundum is colourless and sapphires get their hue from impurities within their crystal structures.  In the case of a green sapphire the colour is from iron which is present within the gem. The gemstone is 2.8mm round and has a faceted cut (similar to a traditional diamond cut) The pendant itself is handmade in sterling silver and is suspended from an sterling silver belcher style link chain.
