Montana

a shifting green Montana sapphire with clustered diamond shoulders in warm yellow gold

The story

Montana was created for someone who loves subtle complexity, a ring that changes with the light and reveals something new each time it’s seen.

At its centre is a round brilliant Montana sapphire with a naturally shifting character: green with hints of blue and gold depending on its environment. This colour-changing quality gives the ring a sense of movement and life, nothing flat, nothing fixed.

The sapphire sits in a six-claw setting in 18K yellow gold, giving it height, security and a warm contrast that enhances the stone’s natural tones. On the shoulders, clusters of brilliant-cut diamonds taper outward in an asymmetric, organic arrangement. The effect is bright, lively and feminine without feeling ornate, a composition that feels as natural as it is intentional.

Montana is a ring for someone who wants individuality expressed quietly, through colour, craft and light.

Design details

  • Round brilliant Montana sapphire
    A colour-shifting green gemstone with flashes of teal, yellow, and soft blue depending on the light, the defining element of the design.

  • Six-claw setting
    A classic and secure claw arrangement that lifts the sapphire slightly above the band and frames it with balanced symmetry.

  • Clustered diamond shoulders
    Tapered arrangements of brilliant-cut diamonds on each side, evoking a natural, blooming effect that brightens the centre stone and adds gentle movement.

  • 18K yellow-gold band and setting
    Warm and polished, chosen to complement the sapphire’s shifting tones and bring out its depth and richness.

  • Softly tapered silhouette
    A slim, refined band that supports the cluster design while keeping the overall feel delicate and wearable.

Craftsmanship

Montana is shaped through a balance of organic form and precise engineering:

  • The six-claw head is aligned under magnification so each claw sits evenly and enhances the sapphire’s round brilliant geometry.

  • The sapphire is seated at a height that allows light to travel through it from all angles, essential for stones with variable colour.

  • Each diamond on the shoulders is bead-set with care, placed to create a natural taper that feels effortless but is actually meticulously planned.

  • The 18K yellow-gold band is hand-finished to a warm polish, echoing the tone of the sapphire without overwhelming it.

The result is a ring with a calm, natural rhythm, nothing too sharp, nothing too heavy, just light, colour and refined craftsmanship.

Why Montana stands out

  • Colour that shifts with the light: the centre stone has a living, chameleon-like quality.

  • Organic sparkle: the diamond clusters introduce soft movement without overpowering the design.

  • Warm harmony: 18K yellow gold enhances the sapphire’s natural green tones while keeping the ring refined and modern.

  • Balance of structure and fluidity: classic six-claw geometry meets naturally arranged shoulder diamonds.
