Sunstone

Item Description

One of the most exceptional things I have seen from the United States is Sunstone from Oregon. This material comes in a myriad of colors ranging from yellow, orange, red, green and even blue in rare cases. Aside from the the extremely rare blue variety, the most hard to find color of this material in good size stones is red. This stone has the classic "champagne" hue which is most commonly associated with this material, but there is a very slight bluish-green overtone. This stone is a very nice quality, "Square Brilliant" cut gem. Typically, many of the stones from this area have what is called a "shiller" which is a shimmer in the stone. This stone actually is virtually eye clean. Don't miss ouf on this great U.S. gemstone.
