Men buy diamond earrings comfortably. Since our founding in 1908, we have found good homes for thousands of pairs of classic diamond stud earrings. 90% of them are purchased by men as gifts for women. In the last ten years, blue sapphire studs have taken over our number one position in popularity. Men, apparently, really grasp the simplicity and purity of diamonds and also the color and the twinkle of blue sapphires.
These Little Life Raft of Blue Sapphire and Diamond earrings are a logical step beyond simple classic diamond or blue sapphire earrings. They enter the more sophisticated world of the classic: pure blue sapphire rimmed with white diamonds and surrounded with a roping pattern at the outer edge.
Why this pair of earrings? Because they are classics, oval blue sapphire center – sky blue perfect, a brilliant, pretty blue color. Each blue sapphire is surrounded by ten bright white diamonds with gingerbread edging. Pierced-post friction-back ear nuts, Cross’ double weight for safety and security. All white gold.
Why We Love These Earrings
People often comment on how blue our sapphires are, how brilliant and pure the color. We believe in blue, pure, true blue. True blue is a medium-toned blue. True blue is not navy or inky dark. True blue is bright and brilliant. True blue sapphires are shades of blue you can relax into; they calm, comfort, and soothe.
Why a Cross Sapphire is the Best
We love blue. We know blue. We live by the blue sea, beneath summer blue skies. Our business is located on a peninsula called Portland, surrounded by saltwater on three sides. We can feel the blue ocean pulsing with every tide. From the rooftop of our building, we can see the open sea. Binoculars show ships coming and going on a blue, blue sea.
We love blue sapphire: It is bright, brilliant and is amazingly durable. As the second hardest gem to diamond, it is a highly wearable gem, ideal for rings. We love blue sapphire…we love it so much that we have traveled to southeast Asia to find first-choice colors. We choose a lighter, brighter blue than most American jewelers because it shows up best under a wide range of real-world lighting conditions. Our blue sapphires look and perform best on everything from sunny days to a candlelit dinner for two.
We want your blue sapphire to dazzle you, dazzle your partner and everyone in any room you visit. Cross’ blue sapphires are the best.
