0.44ct Light Purple Montana Sapphire

This Light Purple Montana Sapphire was mined from the El Dorado Bar and hand-faceted with precision, by me, to showcase its natural beauty. As a natural, untreated stone with no heat or enhancements, it displays a soft pastel purple with exceptional radiance and brilliance.

The pear cut maximizes the stone's light performance while adding distinctive character—perfect as a striking centerpiece or complementary accent in any custom jewelry design.

The stone features distinct rutile lattice inclusions, adding unique character while confirming its natural, untreated origin. These fine striations are clearly visible under magnification, as shown in these photos and videos, yet remain almost invisible to the naked eye.
