supposedly was used as an antidote for poison, a cure for fevers and
epilepsy, eye relief (due to the exceptional color), a cure for dysentery
and leprosy, a cure for ophthalmic and bleeding, a cure for stomach problems
(when laid on the stomach), and a good laxative.

enormous Sapphire and the sky reflected its beautiful color. In the 12th

ecclesiastical rings. Sapphire was thought to give the wearer strengthened vision, including visions of the future. Sapphire was believed to be a symbol of truth and constancy.
