1.28 Ct. Bluish Green Sapphire from Montana

From the mine to your jewelry box, this Montana sapphire tells a story of discovery, care, and skilled craftsmanship. Mined in rugged country where sapphires reveal themselves in river gravels and ancient alluvium, this oval, bluish green stone showed early promise with its transparent body and intense color. The rough was selected for its clarity and color, then stabilized and enhanced by experienced hands using heat treatment to bring forward the deep teal tones that make Montana material so distinctive. Cut to a mixed brilliant face with precise facet junctions, the gem was shaped to one point two eight carat, measuring six point six five by five point seven five by four point three zero millimeters, and given an excellent polish that maximizes brilliance and light return. Evaluated at eye level the clarity is slightly included, a grade that tells of natural origin and character, while the overall symmetry and polish elevate the stone above many commercial cuts.

Compared with other sapphires on the market, this piece stands out for its combination of color, transparency, and honest value, qualities The Natural Sapphire Company carefully curates. Unlike highly marketed Kashmir or Burmese sapphires that command premium prices for classic blues, Montana sapphires offer unique teal and bluish green hues that feel modern and personal, yet still rare and collectible. Against heat free stones that can be rare and costly, this heat treated gem presents a predictable, stable, and attractive color for everyday wear, without sacrificing natural beauty. Compared to lab created alternatives, this natural Montana sapphire carries a provenance and story that cannot be replicated. The mixed brilliant cut gives a liveliness comparable to higher graded stones, while the slight inclusions confirm its natural formation, making it ideal for bespoke rings and heirloom pieces where character and durability matter. When you choose this sapphire through The Natural Sapphire Company, you receive not only a beautiful one point two eight carat oval, but also assurance of origin, expert cutting, and a gem that balances rarity, value, and wearable elegance. If you seek color that is both intense and unique, with a polished finish and trusted provenance, this Montana sapphire is an exceptional choice.
