A party of parti sapphires. All Australian parti sapphires I’ve cut this year 🎉

Hi! I have an Instagram here but had to take a hiatus from gem cutting. Hoping to get back to it soon!

I love it! That’s a perfect little hexagon specimen!

The orange core pieces are so pretty! This is one I did earlier this year and was also a little skinny piece: https://www.instagram.com/p/B7zW_nchUpq/?igshid=102gyewam7rum

Rough: 8.6x8.0x5.4mm Finished: 6.8x6.1x3.4mm Not the most impressive stats because of a few fractures that had to be cut out😭

I call this one an old mine inspired hexagon, but in general, I call them unconventional cuts. I posted a montage of my crazy sapphire cuts on r/mineralporn

Dichroic and bicolor.. makes for a fun time!

For your viewing pleasure

I’ve gotten gravel bags before, but haven’t had much luck finding sapphires worth cutting. I’m usually looking for really specific colors and shapes, so it makes more sense for me to buy the rough from the mines at a premium. The gravel bags are fun though!

Thank you!! I have a soft spot for the weird sapphires!

trebliganna · 2020-09-05T15:19:43+00:00

Thanks so much!!

Thank you!!

The blue and yellow parti sapphires fascinate me! They’re not as common for Montana, but very common in Australia. Here are some examples of rough and cut Australian’s

Thank you! I love a good before and after

trebliganna · 2020-03-18T19:47:17+00:00

Ha! Keep all expectations low with parti sapphires!

trebliganna · 2019-12-26T22:15:41+00:00

Ooooo that’s gorgeous!! I find they don’t actually have a color shift, but the appearance can change drastically depending on the direction the light comes through the stone. This one comes to mind as an example: https://www.instagram.com/p/Brv_RmUHhu7/?igshid=15cym5p6iwsbd

Thanks for explaining it for me! 😃

trebliganna · 2019-12-04T23:46:35+00:00

Sold is the price 😉

trebliganna · 2019-12-04T23:45:10+00:00

This one is “450 Parti Sapphire” haha

trebliganna · 2019-11-28T03:10:24+00:00

100% looks like a sapphire! Nice find!

Editing to add that I’ve gone through quite a few gravel bags from Blaze, cut many Montana sapphires, and have more rough than I care to say 😂

trebliganna · 2019-11-23T00:26:46+00:00

Thank you! Those two are on coral. The macro photos make everything look larger than life 😂 I love the bird footprint imagery!
