Heart Sapphires
The shape of a heart is universally recognised as the ultimate symbol of love and romance. A soft, unique shape with a symmetrically balanced appex, the way you wear your heart could have different meanings.
Heart sapphires are a special type of sapphire that is cut into a heart shape. These beautiful stones are perfect for those who want to express their love, or for those who simply appreciate the unique shape. Heart shaped sapphire stones are also said to have special powers, including the ability to heal broken hearts and open up the heart chakra.
In Ireland, the celtic Claddagh ring gives subtle status hints depending on how you wear it. If worn on the right hand with the apex pointing away from you, it signals you are single. On the right hand pointing toward you suggests you are in a relationship. If worn on the left hand with the appex pointing away from you it signals you are engaged, you turn it over to point toward you when married. Just a bit of fun, but it also shows the significant meaning and symbolic references this shape has for us.
