Neelam is traditionally worn only on an astrologer's advice, and many first wear it on trial for a few days, so please consult your astrologer before wearing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the sapphire come with its certificate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
