If you are searching for a truly distinctive center stone that resolves the familiar choices of diamond blue sapphire and ruby into something unexpectedly personal, this gem answers that need with clarity and conviction. One beautiful transparent 1.22 carat cushion shape bi color sapphire with dimensions of 6.34 x 5.25 x 3.95 mm is an ideal choice for the customer who wants a ring that reads as intimate and rare rather than conventional. The mixed brilliant cut produces lively facets that maximize brilliance while preserving the stone s vivid color intensity, and the excellent polish ensures every facet edge returns light cleanly. Clarity is very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, so the surface presents as practically eye clean while retaining the natural character collectors prize. This Montana origin sapphire has been heat treated, a stable and common enhancement that intensifies the hue and opens the gem to a wider range of wearable designs, and as part of our curated collection at The Natural Sapphire Company it arrives ready to be set as the defining element of an engagement ring or the keystone of a collector s cabinet.
Visually this bi color sapphire offers a layered experience of color and sparkle that separates it from more common gemstones, and that difference becomes more apparent the closer you examine it. Where conventional blue sapphires read as a single dominant shade, and rubies present a straightforward red saturation, this Montana bi color sapphire shows a graceful interplay between warmer orange red tones and cooler pinkish shades across the cushion profile, a result of its natural zoning and the thoughtful mixed brilliant cut. The cut provides mixed facets that encourage scintillation and lively light return, producing a brilliance that is deeper and more complex than the sparkle of a typical garnet or tourmaline, and more color layered than the steady, sometimes flatter appearance of low brilliance sapphires. Compared with diamond, which excels at pure white fire and scintillation due to its higher refractive index, this sapphire offers a different kind of visual pleasure, focused on saturated color and velvet like flashes of light that change with movement, which makes it stand out on a finger as an heirloom quality choice rather than a mass market alternative.
Beyond aesthetics the practical attributes of this sapphire make it an excellent solution for someone who intends daily wear or a lifetime of handling. Montana sapphires are known for their durable corundum structure, and at 1.22 carats with the precise dimensions of 6.34 x 5.25 x 3.95 mm the stone sits comfortably in a variety of settings while preserving the visual heft you want in a center gem. The clarity grade of very very slightly included evaluated at eye level means the stone is effectively eye clean, enabling the vivid color to remain the focal point without internal distractions, and the excellent polish amplifies the gem s ability to catch and reflect light. Heat treatment is disclosed, and it is the standard, stable enhancement that improves color uniformity and intensity without compromising durability, making this sapphire a low maintenance, high reward choice compared with more fragile colored stones. In direct comparison to common alternatives, this sapphire offers a more saturated, dynamic color display than many commercially available sapphires, a brightness and clarity advantage over most garnets, and greater long term stability than some tourmalines and topaz varieties that can be more prone to cleavage or color change.
When your aim is to end the search for an engagement ring center or to add a singular specimen to a collection, this cushion shape bi color sapphire from Montana provides the rare synthesis of color, brilliance, and practical wearability that fulfills that need. As representatives of The Natural Sapphire Company we are committed to helping you translate this gemstone s character into a finished piece that reflects your vision, whether that is a classic halo engagement ring that frames the bi color shifts with delicate diamonds, a simple bezel that highlights the cushion silhouette, or a bespoke creation that celebrates the stone s vivid intensity.
