Choosing an engagement ring is a big moment—and at Manna Jewellers, we know it should feel just right. While diamonds have long been the classic choice, there’s something truly magical about a blue sapphire ring. With its rich, royal hue and timeless charm, a blue sapphire engagement ring is a symbol of wisdom, loyalty, and everlasting love—perfect for modern romantics with a love for meaningful jewellery.
From Princess Diana’s iconic diamond and sapphire ring to today’s most elegant bridal looks, sapphires have stood the test of time. Whether paired with gold for a warm, vintage feel or with diamonds for added sparkle, it’s no wonder sapphire rings are having a real moment.
Sapphires are far more than beautiful blue stones—they're full of meaning. Traditionally linked to sincerity and truth, a blue sapphire engagement ring makes a heartfelt statement that’s as lasting as your love.
From the courts of ancient kings to the hands of British royalty, sapphires have always turned heads. Princess Diana’s world-famous blue sapphire ring, now worn by the Princess of Wales, brought sapphires firmly back into the spotlight—and their popularity hasn’t slowed since with Katherine Princess of wales, who currently wears the same ring.
In fact, nearly a quarter of UK engagement rings now feature coloured gemstones, with blue sapphires leading the way. Whether you’re drawn to a classic gold and blue sapphire ring or a dainty diamond sapphire ring, there's a perfect style for every couple.
“I was amazed by the expertise at Manna Jewellers. Ravi explained the difference between sapphire cuts, colour, and clarity. My fiancée’s ring is breathtaking!”–Sophie & Liam, London
Not all sapphires are created equal, so it helps to understand a few basics. Here's how to pick the perfect sapphire ring with gold, diamonds, or both.
Look for a vibrant, deep blue tone—neither too pale nor too dark. Medium to high saturation gives the gemstone its signature glow.
Sapphires often have natural inclusions (tiny markings), but that just adds to their charm. The clearer the stone, the more valuable it tends to be.
The cut affects how much the sapphire sparkles. Popular shapes like oval, cushion and round are brilliant choices, especially when set in sapphire rings collections.
A smaller sapphire with great colour and cut can outshine a larger, duller stone. Balance is key.
Most sapphires are heat-treated to boost their colour, which is totally standard.especially when buying sapphire rings in the UK.
“We make it a priority to explain treatments, origin, and quality to every customer. Transparency builds trust, and trust is everything in jewellery,”shares Ravi, Owner of Manna Jewellers.
Your ring should reflect your personality. Whether you’re after something bold, vintage, or timeless, there’s a blue sapphire ring for you.
Simple and elegant, a single sapphire on a plain band never goes out of style.
A circle of diamonds around the sapphire gives extra sparkle and creates the illusion of a larger centre stone—ideal for a more dazzling diamond and sapphire ring.
One sapphire, two diamonds—this classic style symbolises your past, present and future together. A truly romantic diamond sapphire ring.
Think milgrain edges, intricate detailing, and old-school glamour. Vintage sapphire rings are perfect for lovers of timeless beauty.
Want something unique? Cluster rings arrange multiple stones in floral or abstract patterns—gorgeous in a gold and blue sapphire ring.

Sapphires are tough (second only to diamonds), but a little care goes a long way in keeping them sparkling.
Wash gently with warm water, mild soap, and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners unless advised by your jeweller.
Take your Blue sapphire engagement ring off when doing heavy-duty tasks, especially involving chemicals or gardening.
Keep it in a soft pouch or separate box to avoid scratching other jewellery.
Get your ring inspected once a year to ensure stones and settings are secure—especially with a diamond and sapphire ring.

Gemstones and diamonds rely entirely on their settings for protection. When the surrounding metal wears down, stones become vulnerable to movement, chipping or loss. Proper care isn’t just about avoiding wear in tricky situations; it’s about managing it wisely so small issues don’t turn into major repairs.
