0.78-Carat Orange Montana Sapphire (Heated)

This heated Montana sapphire is a beautiful orange with very small light blue spots in each corner. The color was developed by heating the sapphire in Montana, but no other treatments were used. The treatment is permanent and stable and not only develops the color, but also improves the clarity. It has very small inclusions that are quite difficult to see with the unaided eye from a normal viewing distance. The inclusions have been factored into the price, making this a great value for the size and color.  This sapphire was faceted in the United States in our “Fourth of July” radiant rectangle design and cut to high precision; the result is a glittering beauty of a gemstone. The gem weighs 0.78 carats and measures 5.7 x 4.1 x 3.2 mm.
