Description
This beautiful heated Montana sapphire is a gorgeous peacock blue, one of the finest shades of blue found in the Montana gems. The color was developed by heating the gem in Montana, but no other treatments were made to the gem. The treatment is permanent and stable and not only develops the color, but also improves the clarity. This sapphire has one tiny inclusion just barely visible to the naked eye that could be hidden under a prong. The inclusion has been factored into the price, making this a great value for the size and color.
I faceted this sapphire in my “Sparkling Snowflake” custom hexagon design; the resulting gemstone is a glittering beauty. It weighs 2.33 carats and measures 8.4 mm across the points, 7.7 mm across the flats, and is 5.2 mm deep. This gem would make a stunning and unique engagement ring.
