Sapphire - the famous blue stone is also called the blue sister of Ruby. Its because they come from the same mineral, corundum.
Sapphire ShapesSOURCE OF SAPPHIRE
The most famous and the finest blue sapphires are the prized Kashmir sapphires which have a blue color that is not only intense, but also velvety. As the name suggests, it originated from India's northwestern region of Kashmir, along the Pakistani/Indian boarder in the western Himalayas. So rare are these sapphires that they are not often seen in the gemstone market.
Second only to Kashmir in quality and mystique is the Burmese Sapphires. They are now sourced from Srilanka and Australia, Tanzania and Madagascar. The value of sapphires depends on their color, transparency and size. And in cases of very fine quality sapphires, the origin also has a major role.

Pearls have always been expensive, so much so that the 20th century saw the emergence of the cultured pearl.

Pearls are now preferred to diamonds - for a long time, then, they were thought of as a badge of respectability, almost of authority rather than the exotic and fascinating jewels that they are. Pearls are formed as a result of layer upon layer of a substance known as nacre, secreted by the oyster.
Literally hundreds of oysters have to be opened before one is found with a pearl. Nor can you cut it neither shape it as you can with other gems. They improve with wear, picking up faint traces of oil from your skin - so rub them with soft chamois leather rather than washing them.
