Join us as we celebrate and participate in Bozeman Pride all month! We have many brand-new Fancy Montana Sapphire pieces with delightful rainbows going into our cases just for the occasion! Make sure to check out our Rainbow Collection on the website if you can't make it in to visit us.
We’re excited to announce that starting June 1st, 25% of our profits on all rainbow-colored jewelry sales will go to local non-profits that make a meaningful impact on our queer community. We’re kicking this off during Pride Month but will be a way we give back year-round.

Now that the poll has closed and the points are tallied, we're excited to share our winning designs from our retrospective! Every piece in our poll was someone's favorite, however, these pieces rose to the top out of many votes.
Hand Engraved Beauty
This month we wanted to highlight some of the phenomenal hand engraving that our talented goldsmith Julie has been working on. She initially engraved this pocket knife's handle for engraving and inlay practice, but we loved the final result so much that we decided to put it into our cases! This ring set consisted of refurbishing an existing ring as well as building a new three-stone ring to match. We had made the original ring many years ago and its beautiful filigree work had been worn down with time. Julie artfully revived it and now it's better than new.
