0.32 Ct. White Sapphire from Montana

From the rugged alluvial gravels of Montana to the careful hands in our cutting studio, this white sapphire tells the kind of story that makes a gem feel like an heirloom from the moment you see it. We recovered a transparent 0.32 carat pear shape sapphire, measuring 5.14 x 3.59 x 2.45 mm, and brought it through a thoughtful process of cleaning, heat enhancement, and precision cutting to reveal its inner light. Cut as a mixed brilliant, the pavilion facets work with the crown to give lively sparkle, while its near colorless tone and excellent polish allow subtle flashes of brilliance to play across the surface. Slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the gem carries tiny natural character that speaks to its origin, and the heat treated enhancement was applied responsibly to stabilize and accentuate its clarity and tone. Pictures of the stone in tweezers, in a small presentation box, and resting on a hand illustrate scale and presence, a reminder that a petite stone can still make a thoughtful and memorable statement.

At The Natural Sapphire Company we delight in translating stones like this into jewelry that tells personal stories, and this pear shaped Montana sapphire is particularly versatile for bespoke designs. Its pear silhouette is ideal for a classic solitaire engagement ring, oriented with the point toward the fingertip to lengthen the look of the hand, or worn point down for a modern asymmetric feel. It adapts beautifully to a halo setting that amplifies its sparkle, to a three stone design paired with small colored sapphires for contrast, or to delicate stud earrings and understated pendants where its refined size reads as elegant and wearable. For daily wear, a bezel or low prong setting protects the point, while an open head or east west mount can maximize light return and show off the mixed brilliant cut. Consider warm rose gold to add warmth to the near colorless body, or platinum and white gold to emphasize crisp brilliance. If you prefer something unique, our design team can mirror mount the pear as a drop earring or set it as a center accent in a vintage inspired cluster. We are happy to arrange a private consultation to explore metal choices, complementary stones, and setting styles, and to create a finished piece that honors this Montana gem and your personal story, The Natural Sapphire Company.
