Montana sapphires have remarkable color and brilliance. The unique color of blue Montana sapphires reminds you of a favorite pair of jeans -or your favorite pair of blue eyes! Usually lacking in purple tones, they exhibit a gray tint and are notorious color shifters, colors varying with the light source they are under. They come in other colors, like teal, green, blue-green, orange, peach, yellow, apricot, peacock, pink, purple, grey, bi-color, parti-color, color change, and even colorless. There are some colors from Montana that are found nowhere else in the world. Sizes over 6mm are extremely rare!
Like all sapphires, Montana sapphires are tough and relatively scratch-resistant and make great jewelry stones.
