Sapphire was also regarded as an excellent healing crystal. Therefore, the gem symbolized heaven in the Middle Ages. Ancient Persians thought that the sky derived its blue color from an enormous sapphire on which the earth rested. According to the elite of Ancient Rome and Greece, a blue sapphire guarded its wearer against envy and danger. Royal jewelry and the robes of the clergy used to be embellished with the gemstone, sapphire, in earlier times. Sapphire, the popular blue gemstone, derives its name from the Greek and Latin words, "sappheiros" and "sapphirus," meaning “blue.” But this gemstone comes in various other colors too, like pink and white.
