If you’re looking to add a touch of sparkle to your crafting adventures in Disney Dreamlight Valley, the Star Sapphire is a gem you’ll want to track down. Not only is it a valuable resource for crafting, but it’s also a lovely addition to the Storybook Vale gems collection once discovered.
Star Sapphire location in Disney Dreamlight Valley
While exploring Everafter, one of the biomes in The Storybook Vale, look for black ore rocks scattered across the area. Equip your Pickaxe and start mining these rocks to uncover Star Sapphires. Occasionally, you might strike lucky and find a Shiny Star Sapphire, which is a rarer and more valuable variant.
Remember, mining is a game of chance, so be patient. Even if the Shiny variant doesn’t appear on your first few attempts, you’ll find one eventually. Try using Miracle Pickaxe Polish or using a companion with the Mining duty attached to them to get more Star Sapphires from each ore rock.

What else to do with the Star Sapphire in DDV
If you’re not using your Star Sapphire for crafting or quests, there are only two other purposes for this gem. Some villagers may request a Star Sapphire as part of their daily preferences for gifts, which means you can give away one of them to boost your Friendship Level with that villager. Giving a villager their favorite gifts for the day will always boost your Friendship Level more than giving them any old gift.
Alternatively, you can sell your Star Sapphire at any Goofy Stall in the game. There’s one in the Wild Woods in Everafter, so you won’t need to go far to sell the gems you mine in the area. Selling Star Sapphires to Goofy will net you 450 Star Coins. But, if you have the shiny version of the gem, you can sell it for 1,800 Star Coins.
Grab your Pickaxe, explore the Everafter area, and start mining with a companion. With a bit of persistence and luck, you’ll collect enough Star Sapphires—and perhaps a few shiny ones—to fulfill your crafting and questing needs.
