Simply stated, one of the best colors you can hope for in (non-Yogo) Montana Sapphire. The color is a strong and bright blue with just a tinge of that classic ‘denim’ tone - just enough to make the color distinctly Montana without being grey in the slightest. With a touch of the usual color zoning (see second photo) but the cutting alleviates this and it is not visible face-up at all. A fine, larger round with a superb cut as well, this is one of the best Missouri River stones that we have had. Beautiful in all regards.
