Working with Lauryn V. was a great experience. She took the time to understand my vision and to create the perfect ring! Plus it came a really cool box. Thank you Earth Treasury, we’ll talk soon to order our wedding rings = )

The process of creating my ring was easy, pleasant and best of all I did it from the comfort of my home! I have purchased other gemstones and settings from Earth’s Treasury, it was only logical that ET was my first place to look. I found the exact emerald that I had been dreaming of. The cut and color were amazing. I emailed questions about the emerald, the reply was swift and contained the information I had asked for. I requested a video of the emerald which ET happily and quickly furnished. I then had the emerald sent to me to approve in person. The emerald was amazing. Emeralds are not an easy gemstone to photograph, the emerald color in the photograph was exactly as it appeared in person. After I selected the emerald and setting I was contacted by ET’s team. Julia was extremely easy to work with. She listened to everything I wanted, made suggestions, then modified an existing setting (The Anne) to my specifications. After multiple (I kept changing my mind) renderings my dream ring was born. The process of making the ring took approximately 4 weeks after my approval of the rendering. I regularly received emails informing me where in the process my ring was. When my ring was completed (which was in the time frame quoted) I received an email with a tracking number. I can’t say enough about the quality, it’s second to none. My ring is perfectly sized and weighted. It doesn’t roll on my finger. The diamonds sparkle like crazy. Do not hesitate to purchase from ET, the quality and cut of their gemstones, metals (I have both 14K yellow gold and Platinum) and customer service is far superior to any brick and mortar store. My emerald and diamond ring is my dream ring. Earth’s Treasury made it a reality for me.

Just wanted to thank you for doing a great job with the ring. It looks great!

I was searching for a natural sapphire to replace a damaged sapphire as part of an insurance claim. Neither the insurance company jeweler nor the jewelry store that was part of the large conglomerate where I purchased the original sapphire, were able to source what I wanted. So, I turned to the internet and found Earth’s Treasury. After reading the “about” information and learning how Earth’s Treasury was founded, I did an internet search of the founder, Jeff Hapeman. There were several pieces, independent of the company, that provided enough of a comfort level to pursue my replacement through Earth’s Treasury. I first found a beautiful sapphire that was the right size (3+carat) and the right price, so I requested further information. Jeff sent me the GIA information as well as 2 videos of the stone set in a display ring, shown on a model’s hand. The first video showed what it looked like under indoor lighting, and the second video highlighted outdoor lighting, which was very helpful. I then placed my order. The stone arrived via FedEx in just a few days, was packaged very securely, and the stone was well protected. Also included was a “display” ring so I could view the stone on my finger. It was a lovely stone, but it just didn’t wow me. I reached out to Earth’s Treasury and they were very accommodating. I had the option to return the stone for a full refund or exchange it for another; I chose an exchange as I had already identified another Earth’s Treasury stone. After deciding on the sapphire I wanted, the next step was to return it, along with my previous setting (minus the damaged sapphire), so they could create a new piece using my original diamonds. Once again, they made this process very easy. I then worked with their designer, Lauryn, who made sure she had a clear understanding of what I wanted. She created a ring that was exactly what I was looking for. It did take a couple months to receive the completed piece (along with an insurance appraisal), but Lauryn was very clear and precise with the timing up-front. I was not disappointed when I received my new ring as it is beautiful! Both Jeff and Lauryn were very responsive to my (numerous) email questions. I should also add that they were able to help me resize another ring I had, once again facilitating that entire process. I would have no hesitation recommending Earth’s Treasury to anyone.

I purchased an engagement ring from Earth’s Treasury in the summer of 2022. My fiancé and I searched for the perfect ring together, and we were satisfied with every part of the process. The online store offers a great selection of gems and ring designs, and has an interface that is easy to navigate. There are many filter options which make it straightforward to search for stones that meet specific preferences. We searched for Montana Sapphires of a specific hue, and were able to find several options. Once we narrowed down our choices to a few stones, Earth’s Treasury provided details and videos comparing the stones by email. After that, they even offered to send a stone by mail for in-person inspection. This was very helpful, and we actually changed our selection after seeing a stone in person (It matched all written descriptions, but it really helped to see the size and shine in person). The beautiful ring I received in the end was made in a timely manner, and met all our expectations. Even though we shopped online from a different state, Earth Treasury gave us confidence in the process, and were able to find the perfect stone in the end. I received timely, professional and thoughtful communication at every step of the way, and the business continued to respond to inquiries after the purchase as well. I highly recommend this business to anyone shopping for gems or jewelry.

I simply cannot say enough good things about working with Earth’s Treasury! I was born and raised in Montana very near the mine where many Montana sapphires come from. For sentimental reasons I wanted a stone from this mine and found Jeff and Earth’s Treasury. I purchased a large, unheated stone as the center for a replacement wedding ring land Jeff worked with me throughout finding the right stone. Most recently, I purchased a custom-made, right hand ring with a rainbow of Montana sapphires. Lauryn was fabulous and I am beyond happy with my gorgeous ring! The stones are fabulous, the craftmanship and artistry is second to none, response time is almost immediate and the finished product is absolutely stunning. I highly recommend Earth’s Treasury!
Janet
Thank you so much for helping to make such a wonderful ring. I proposed to Sarah this weekend and she loves the ring! I had never heard of Montana sapphires before she said she wanted one and I’m really glad that I found your company and had you make the ring. Jeff – the more knowledgeable friends that looked at the stone described it as exceptionally well cut and she loves the different colors that it turns and how it catches the light perfectly. In looking at a few other sapphires side by side yours were literally a cut above and really helped to bring the ring to life! Lauryn – I was initially skeptical of designing a ring online, but the ring turned out perfectly! You somehow took a rough idea and my limited knowledge of jewelry design and asked all the right questions and came up with a ring design that was exactly what we were hoping for. I remember showing the initial renderings to her family and they were already impressed – but the finished ring turned out even better and is truly a work of art! Tessa – thanks for helping to keep everything moving on track and being so supportive and responsive at the end.The ring turned out better than I could have hoped and many thanks to the whole team who helped make it happen! While I hope not to need another engagement ring, I’ll definitely keep you in mind for other pieces.
All the best, Matt
I came across Earth’s Treasury after I had fallen in love with Montana sapphires, and was amazed by their huge selection. After an unsuccessful engagement ring order with another company, I reached out to Earth’s Treasury to inquire about some of the stones. I was also interested in customizing one of the designs already on the website (the “Siobhan”). Nina responded within hours, sending me videos of the specific stones I was interested in, and redirected me to Lauryn about customizing the ring design. Lauryn responded very quickly and answered all of my questions, and we were able to get my ring purchased and into production very quickly. The company was great about keeping me updated on the process, and my ring was completed well within the expected timeframe. Nina worked with me to make sure it was shipped correctly and my fiancé and I were stunned when we opened the box. It was better than we could have imagined! We really loved working with Earth’s Treasury. Lauryn & Nina, and everyone behind the scenes, made the process so smooth and easy, and the end result is incredible.

Great people to work with! They help you with every step along the way and make sure you’re getting everything you expect and want! Will definitely be going back to them with any of my jewelry needs!
Patrick
Earth’s Treasury and Lauryn Volovar were so great to work with! Lauryn especially– her rings are excellent quality and she provides great customer service. Don’t bother with anyone else if you’re in the market for a Montana sapphire!
Lizzie
Earth’s Treasury is phenomenal!!! My fiance and I searched everywhere for a beautiful Montana sapphire and could not find one. We finally went to Earth’s Treasury and couldn’t be happier that we did! The gems are gorgeous – of the highest quality – and the service was so personalized. Contact Lauryn V. – she was our point person and was the best! Not only did she help us design the entire ring and pick out the perfect gem, but she was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and patient (I had tons of questions and constantly changed my mind). It was important to me not to support the diamond business and I was so happy to learn that the Montana sapphires here are ethically sourced and that the company cares for the environment and takes care of the surrounding community. I couldn’t be happier with my engagement ring!
Maria
We purchased 2 beautiful rings from Earth’s Treasury in 2020. One was a stunning Ceylon rich cornflower blue unheated sapphire set with pear shaped side diamonds in platinum. The other was a rare Ethiopian untreated emerald set east west in platinum. The sapphire was beautifully recut by Jeff and the emerald was also beautifully cut by Jeff from a rough he acquired at a trade show in Arizona. He knew the sourcing of both stones. They are true show pieces which I wear every day. Everyone at Earth’s Treasury are true professionals and highly ethical in all they do from sourcing through delivery and after. They are prompt and attentive. I could not recommend them more!
Aimee
Excellent service and attention to detail! A world class experience, I will be back!!
Matthew
I am so pleased with every aspect of this business from the customer service to the quality for their products. Thank you so much and I will definitely be a return customer!!! High recommend!!!
Fran
Ordered a Montana Sapphire and an engagement band from here. My fiance and I agree this is probably the most beautiful engagement ring we’ve ever seen! Working with them was a pleasure and I plan on looking to them for future jewelry needs.
Timothy
I decided to have Earth’s Treasury make my wedding band. It was the best decision ever!! There was a lot of communication throughout the process which I greatly appreciated. The team did a fantastic job giving clear instructions, updates, and answering any questions along the way. I had the honor to work with Lauryn, Julia, Tessa, Nina and Caroline. They are all fantastic people who can cater to make your gemstone dreams come true. I will definitely be back to get more pieces and to have them serviced.
Katelyn
I had an excellent experience selecting a stone and designing a ring with Earth’s Treasury. The staff was extremely communicative, knowledgeable and prides itself on making the process (including shipping back and forth) seamless. They brought my idea to life, and I consider my ring my most prized possession!
Clare
I found originally found Earth’s Treasury while looking for Montana Sapphires and was overwhelmed by their beautiful selection of stones. I was excited to learn that they also design custom rings, and I have only positive things to say about the process of creating an engagement ring (pictured below). Julia worked with me based on concept art and a description of the ring we were looking for, creating and refining a 3D rendering of the ring before casting it. Julia was incredibly helpful and responsive to questions, and the final casting and shipping of the ring was very quick. I’m happy to say she said yes when I proposed and even happier to recommend Earth’s Treasury!
Benjamin
My fiancé and I had a very positive experience ordering two customs sapphire engagement rings (the palladium ring with the blue stone and the gold ring with the red stone) from Earth’s Treasury. Jeff answered every question I had about the stones we chose for our rings. Lauryn was very considerate and honest about what we could accomplish with our budgets and our timeline. She was also very accommodating to all of our design requests and changes. Tessa even sent me some “work in progress” videos at my request. I would (and do) highly recommend ET if you’re looking for beautiful stones and beautiful jewelry.
Alexandria
My experience with Jeff Hapeman at Earth’s Treasury was fantastic. Jeff was quick to respond to all my questions and requests. Once I decided on the perfect sapphire, I took it to a local ring designer to design the band and set the stone. The ring designer I worked with was actually familiar with Jeff’s work, which I think really speaks to the quality and reputation of Earth’s Treasury. Jeff is truly an artist with his gem faceting. He has even won awards for his work. He isn’t just trying to maximize carat weight, but is instead designing the cut for ideal light reflection/refraction, color, and overall appeal. He understands the emotional connection that people want with their gem. You might be able to find a cheaper sapphire somewhere else (although Earth’s Treasury’s prices were still very reasonable) but I doubt you could find a higher quality stone or better experience.
Dan
Experience from start to finish was exceptional! The selection of stones, craftsmanship of settings, and service set Earth’s Treasury apart from competitors. So happy we chose them for my engagement ring and wedding band!
Jennifer
I had an incredible experience getting my engagement ring through Earth’s Treasury and can’t say enough good things about them! The selection of stones they have is incredible and the cuts and craftsmanship are far superior to anything you could get through a big jewelry chain, not to mention very fairly priced! From my initial request for additional videos to receiving the ring, everyone I interacted with was professional and friendly, communication was clear and fast, and I never felt pressured or rushed. Special shoutout to Tessa for being patient with me through multiple, multiple questions and rounds of video requests, and who also went through their entire inventory searching for a stone in the color I wanted, and to Julia, who helped us incorporate a personal design into a classic setting. My fiancé and I couldn’t be happier with the ring and I can’t wait to do business with these fine folks again!
Emily
The entire experience with the team was amazing! Lauryn was incredibly patient while I went through many options to find the perfect sapphire. She sent amazingly helpful videos of the sapphires in both indoor lighting and outside. I was also encouraged to view two sapphires in person before picking the right one for me. It was a nerve wracking process, but I feel like it really helped me find the perfect match. After that, I was connected with Julia and we corresponded on the details of what I was looking for and how I wanted to incorporate some heirloom diamonds into the ring. I don’t know what magic she has, but she took my little daydream and blew me away with something incredibly personal, unique, and more beautiful than I even pictured. They send a computer work up of the piece, which I was really excited about, but trust me- the final product is even better!
