Orange sapphires get their color from trace amounts of chromium and iron trapped in the corundum crystal during formation. The specific ratio of these elements determines whether the stone leans toward peach, tangerine, or reddish-orange.
Orange sapphires rate 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, making them highly resistant to scratches and chips. This durability makes them suitable for everyday wear in pendant settings.
