Yellow sapphire, also called Pukhraj, is one of the most precious gemstones in the world. It is a yellow coloured gemstone of the Corundum mineral family. It is ruled by the planet Jupiter and is the birthstone of those born in September.
In India, it holds a lot of importance as it is associated with Lord Ganesha. Just as Ganesha brings prosperity and wisdom, so does the pukhraj. From time immemorial, people in India and the Middle East have been wearing this stone to bring their businesses immense success. Not only that but it is also worn for professional prosperity, blissful matrimony, enhanced will power, and healthy progeny.
Srilanka, Myanmar (formerly Burma), Thailand, and Australia are the best sources of the gemstone. However, Sri Lankan pukhraj is the most popular of the lot because of its clarity and colour consistency followed by pukhraj from Myanmar.
