Interest in sapphire brooches remains strong, particularly for antique and period examples where craftsmanship and gemstone quality combine. Art Deco sapphire brooches are especially sought after, valued for their geometry and bold use of colour, while later pieces appeal to buyers drawn to statement design.
Increasingly, brooches are collected as sculptural jewels — appreciated for form and artistry as much as wearability.
Dawsons has handled a range of sapphire-set brooches and related jewellery, including sapphire and diamond designs, period platinum pieces, and vintage gold examples, each attracting competitive interest. These sales reflect the continued appetite for sapphire jewellery presented with clarity and expertise.
Sellers of sapphire brooches often choose Dawsons for our experience handling both antique and modern gemstone jewellery. From elegant sapphire and diamond brooches to bold vintage statement pieces, clients regularly highlight the professionalism of our specialists and the results achieved at auction. Read genuine Google reviews below from those who entrusted us with their sapphire brooches.
Yes — particularly pieces with strong colour and balanced design.
Deep blue sapphires are most sought after, but well-designed brooches with lighter or cornflower tones can also perform strongly.
Many are, but mid-century and later sapphire brooches can be equally desirable if the design is strong.
Less so than for other jewellery. Design and craftsmanship are often more important to buyers.
Payment is made within 30 days once the buyer has settled in full.
Sapphire brooches allow colour to take centre stage. Whether arranged in precise geometric patterns or softer, organic forms, sapphires bring depth and authority to brooch design that few gemstones can match.
Collected as wearable jewels or sculptural objects, sapphire brooches continue to appeal to buyers who value clarity of design and confident use of colour. At Dawsons, our specialists ensure each piece is valued with discernment, presented with care, and offered to collectors who genuinely appreciate its qualities.
