Since its establishment in 1944, the Golden Globe Awards have been a place to wear exquisite and expensive jewelry. The 2011 Golden Globe Awards, which were held last night at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California, had its fair share of elegant and opulent jewelry pieces adorned by actors and actresses alike. Although many of the attendants wore jewelry with diamonds, few wore sapphire jewelry. Tina Fey, Jessalyn Gilsig, and Christina Aguilera were among the few who were seen wearing sapphire jewelry at the glamorous event.

Tina Fey, who was nominated for Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series-Comedy or Musical for 30 Rock wore sapphire jewelry from Lorraine Schwartz. Tina wore diamond and blue sapphire blackened platinum earrings with 40-carat pear shaped sapphire drops (shown below), a 60-carat diamond and blue sapphire platinum bracelet, and a 12-carat blue sapphire blackened platinum ring. Check out a magnificent replica of Fey’s ring, a 14-carat blue natural sapphire ring from The Natural Sapphire Company.

Jessalyn Gilsig, who stars as Terri Schuester on Glee, which won Best Television Series-Comedy or Musical, wore sapphire jewelry from Chopard (shown below). Gilsig had white gold teardrop earrings with 53 carats of multi-colored sapphires and a floral bracelet with an astonishing 282 carats of pink sapphires set in white and rose gold.
