Sapphire's are only one of the common semi-precious stones found on local Nova Scotia beaches. I stumbled onto this nice sample on one of my sandy walks back in 2012 in Sandford, Nova Scotia. The blue crystals were among the larges stones on the rocky coast and I was glad I took the time to climb among the rocks and find them ♥
Here's a short video about sapphires, me and how to find a stone! Hope you will enjoy ☼
