Montana Sapphires, finally! Sourced from the Rock Creek drainage in Philipsburg, MT and cut in Vancouver, WA by a family company I am absolutely psyched to be working with. This piece is mined, sourced, cut, and set in the USA. I could not be more proud!
THIS PARTICULAR SAPPHIRE IS AS PICTURED, a light gray-blue-green with some cloudy blue inclusions.
My last batch of MT Sapphires from the cutters were absolutely gorgeous, but are not your traditional dark blue-teal MT sapphires. Montana is famous for producing some of the world's most gorgeous and varied colors of Sapphire in the world, including greens, yellows, pinks, periwinkle, and nearly clear. Please allow for color variation from the computer screen, but I have tried to capture this rose-cut Sapphire as accurately as I can in both full sun and shade. This Sapphire I would consider to be in the Gray-Blue family.
Please add a note during checkout as to which length you prefer, 16" or 18" beaded cable chain. Amanda wears an 18" in this photo.

Gold Fill is an excellent alloy I have worked with for many years now. I've found it to be surprisingly durable and wearable, a great color match to 14k solid gold, hypo-allergenic, and all at an affordable price point! This alloy is not to be confused with gold plating, which is total junk. 14k Gold FILL is a thick 14k solid gold layer on top of a brass core on all sides, and will not scratch off like plating always does. Plating is a microscopic dusting of gold over cruddy base-metal, and I never EVER use it.
