Sapphire from Rock Creek, Montana (Gem Mountain)
No. 429: Standard Brilliant Cut, 0.97 ct., 5.7 x 4.0 mm, VS,
$97.00 Sold
Shown here is a light lavender sapphire with a slight yellow tint to it (The yellow
is barely evident in the image). The rough gem crystal was predominantly lavender
in color, but there was a tiny yellow area that was retained after faceting. At one
viewing angle the stone appears lavender in color. At a different viewing angle the
stone appears almost yellow. This stone is another example of the unusual color combinations
that come from the Gem Mountain, Montana, gemfields. This heat-treated stone would
make a beautiful ring or pendant.
