Design:
The reverse design by Three Degrees Creative Group is both visually compelling and richly symbolic, with a thoughtful melding of traditional and contemporary design elements. In the background, a beautifully engraved lotus pattern fills the reverse in a modern take on the blooms that traditionally symbolize purity of the heart and mind. A majestic, mid-relief dragon is brought to life through intricate engraving that recreates it in extraordinary detail; its presence also carries a strong meaning, as the dragon is a time-honoured symbol of power, strength and good luck in Asian mythology. Above it, a traditional circular motif bears a Swarovski crystal embellishment that represents sapphire, the birthstone for September, which is said to bring wisdom and calm to those born in the month. The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
- In the Middle Ages, the clergy wore sapphires as a symbolfor heaven while commoners thought it attracted blessings.
- A blue sapphire's colour can range from light to dark greenish or a deep violet-blue; but as a corundum type of gem, sapphires can actually occur in all kinds of colours (except red).
- Sapphires are found throughout Southeast Asia.
