Nice looking sapphires! I luv the twinkle and color combinations Montanas have to offer, hoarding some myself. Set a yellow green color changer recently in silver and gold.

rockncajun did an excellent job faceting your sapphires for you, Fossilman! One of 'em looks as if it has some pink in it? Are they Montana's? If they are Montana's, were they heat-treated?

Yes they are Montana's and yes one is pink,one red,one yellow,the rest a clear hint of blue....My wife and I bought some sapphire gravel in Phillipsburg,MT and found many.... Heat treated no................

Really nice, and Made in the USA! All those in a bucket of gravel, or did you sift several buckets?
