0.56 ct Blue Sapphire-Montana - Oval

This 0.56-carat sapphire is cut as an oval measuring 5.2 x 4.5 x 3.4 mm, with a blue body color, sourced from Montana.

Sapphire is corundum, one of the hardest materials in the gem world after diamond, and it comes in every color the species holds except the red the trade reserves for ruby. The Montana deposits along the Missouri River and Rock Creek give American sapphire its steely blue and teal signature. Its color was brought up by heat, a legitimate and accepted practice that the trade discloses and we disclose here.

Its exact combination of color, cut, and origin is its own, the kind of center stone you choose on purpose and build a piece around. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and photographs it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
