The beauty of the pink sapphire is rooted in the stone’s hardness, which “is second to diamond,” said Joanna Hardy, author of “Sapphire: A Celebration of Colour,” published this fall by Thames & Hudson in association with Violette Editions and Gemfields. There is a passion for pink in fashion in politics, with a pussy hat from the 2017 Women’s March now in the Smithsonian and in diamonds, like the 10-carat pink diamond that the rapper Lil Uzi Vert had implanted in his forehead - and then removed - earlier this year. Not that the princess’s ring was the primary factor.
When Princess Eugenie of Britain unveiled her pink-orange padparadscha engagement ring in early 2018, neither she nor her then-fiancé, Jack Brooksbank - who said he chose the oval gem - could have anticipated the craze for pinkish sapphires today.
