The Singapore Sapphire has been used to celebrate Singapore’s National Day since 1969. This piece of art was made by A. M. Stuart, a Canadian artist with Scottish roots and the son of a Presbyterian minister. It was his first public commission in Singapore and has been displayed at The National Museum of Singapore since its unveiling in 1971 until 2012 when it went back to the workshop to be restored.

Reviews About “Singapore Sapphire” by “A. M. Stuart”
I recently read Singapore Sapphire by author A.M. Stuart, and I loved it! The story is set in Australia, where two young female friends experience life-changing events during their first year of university. At first, the novel follows a cliched storyline where they are just trying to adjust to being at university and are feeling a bit homesick and out of place (something I feel myself right now). It takes a while for things to start picking up but once they do you’re pulled into a completely different world – literally! Imagine waking up one day in another person’s body, which happens to be on another planet entirely!
