Gemstone (8)

'gemstone' is the definition.
(sapphire is a kind of gemstone)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sapphire that I've seen before include "Precious stone of rich blue" , "His paper can be turned into a jewel" , "Birthstone for September" , "A gem; I, perhaps (anag.)" , "Corundum gemstone" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, the Evening Standard, The Times and The Mirror.
