Mined in the US and easy to trace its ethical origins, Montana Sapphires tend to come in muted, dreamy colors. Sapphires are a corundum variety, like rubies, that come in every color but red. While classic, cobalt sapphires are the most popular, the HBJ studio loves those with inclusions and atypical coloring. Sapphire inclusions are formed by minerals called needles; in ancient Greece and Rome, royalty believed that sapphires provided protection.

Let customers speak for us
Hanna’s magic strikes again. The scrimshaw pieces have always intrigued me but wanted to wait for something that matches my style. This sweet sea nettle is a testimony to Hanna’s steady hand and it’s a lovely day to day piece. I have not taken it off once.
I received my gorgeous ring two weeks ago, and it is absolutely stunning. The stone is dazzling and captivating – it changes color in different light – I've never seen anything like it. I deeply appreciate the artistry of the setting – the hallmark of a true craftswoman. Thank you!
This necklace is aptly named 'enchanted.' Hannah has a unique gift in her ability to 'read' each stone's unique attributes, and dialogue with her materials accordingly. When I wear this, I morph into a miniature mermaid, with this as my pool. Amazing craftswomanship.
This ring is absolutely breathtaking with the soft brushed gold nestled next to the vibrant green tourmaline. I can’t keep my eye off this bold statement piece yet it’s refined for everyday wear. I’m in love with my ring, it’s not just jewelry-it’s a piece of art.
These earrings are more spectacular in person. I have been a customer of Hanna for more than 10 years. I feel honor to be an owner of jewelry when she was just get started. When I want something special or unusual I turn to Hanna first.
Unbelievable depth in this stone. I’ve never seen a ring with such stunning detail. My fiancée was so happy with this ring. The communication from Hannah’s team was unparalleled. Thank you thank you thank you!
I cannot express how happy I am to get to wear this piece of art every day! Every detail of this ring is perfection. The Montana sapphire is normally a moody greenish-gray but can appear a lighter green or even a shade of blue in different lighting. The white gold barnacles add just the right amount of asymmetrical interest without overpowering the beauty of the stone or the simplistic outline of the design. The craftsmanship is stunning, and no detail was overlooked in it's creation. I'm thrilled with my Ruthie B. Barnacle ring! 😀
I absolutely love my ring. I chose it because of the unique arrangement of the barnacles. It’s even prettier in person than it was in photos. I cannot wait to choose another to add to my collection.
The first time I SWOONED over these gorgeous earrings was when I saw them go up on line under the "WHAT'S NEW" section! The SECOND time I SWOONED was when I purchased them and saw them IN PERSON! The pink in these pearls is so gorgeous and the Rose Gold used to make beautiful roses on the earring is soooo perfect! If you love Pink, you love Pearls, you love Roses and you love gorgeous handmade jewelry you will love these earrings! They are so feminine and pretty! SWOON!
Absolutely stunning and get so many compliments on it! only issue is I am a lot less productive at work because I get so distracted by how beautiful it is!
So funny I was just taking pictures of this beautiful ring. I am blown away. At 62 I think it’s the most beautiful piece of jewelry I’ve ever owned mind you, I have never been a tennis bracelet or classic pearl necklace girl but if you love the mountains in the sea, this is the, this is the ring for you. I can’t wait to invest in my next piece of Hannah Blount jewelry that I will surely be passing down to my daughter.
I love this ring! It’s a beautiful color and fits perfectly. Working with the Hannah Blount team was really easy. I was moving and they went to lengths to ensure I got my ring before I left. Even rushing the shipping. I can’t speak highly enough of the team and their kindness. Thank you so much!
I already loved moss agate but this organic setting is its perfect home. I can’t stop admiring it when I’m wearing it!
Always stunning pieces. And I MEAN stunning. I have several pieces now and will be looking for more. My daughter and daughter-in-law have been given a piece as well by me.
This ring is gorgeous! Love the color and the craftsmanship!!
