Sapphire - Hexagon - 0.53ct
This 0.53-carat sapphire was mined in Montana and cut as a hexagon step cut, measuring 6.02 x 5mm. Its natural color moves between pinky purple and orange, carrying more than one color in a single stone, so it reads warm from one angle and rosy from another. The price is $400.
Because the color is natural to Montana rough rather than lab-produced, no two of these sapphires look alike. Sapphire is a 9 on the Mohs scale, second only to diamond, which makes this stone an easy choice for a ring worn every day. Please note that Bohemi does not sell loose stones on their own: each sapphire is set into an engagement ring or a custom project designed with you.
Heather and her team hand-set every stone at their studio in Boulder, Colorado, working in platinum or in 10k, 14k, and 18k gold cast from reclaimed scrap. If a hexagon Montana sapphire is the center you have been picturing, start with Bohemi's engagement rings and reach out to build the setting around it.
