Description
This unusual Montana sapphire is a unique combination of a grayish-green color and a rose-purple hue in daylight, but it changes to completely rose-purple under incandescent light. While slight color changes or shifts are not uncommon in the Montana sapphires, a complete change between two very different colors like this gem has is quite rare. Completely natural and untreated, this is the color of the gem just as it formed deep in the earth, millions of years ago. This sapphire has excellent clarity, with just a light amount of natural rutile silk only visible under a 10x loupe. Unheated natural sapphires like this are very rare; each year we are only able to cut about 5-7% of our rough without having it heated.
This gem is faceted in our custom “Helena” brilliant oval design, created and optimized for sapphire; the result is a glittering beauty of a gemstone. The gem weighs 1.06 carats and measures 6.4 mm x 5.4 mm x 4.1 mm.

Video Request
Although we do our best to take the highest quality images, sometimes it can be difficult to envision how it will look on your hand. We can take a video of up to four gems side by on the hand to help you compare them and see how they perform in daylight. Please provide the following information, and include the SKU numbers or links to the stones you would like to see a video of.
Please note that we don’t do 360-degree videos as colored gems are optimized to be viewed face up, and because the current technology is such that none of the 360-degree systems we have tested provides the accurate color. Our desire is to present the most honest and accurate color possible!
