Item Description
One of the most exceptional things I have seen from the United States is Sunstone from Oregon. Transparent Feldspar is rare around the world, let alone COLORFUL material like they find in 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 a beautiful champagne hue with a slight peach overtone. The gem has a "Checkerboard Round" cut. Typically, many of the stones from this area have what is called a "shiller" which is a shimmer in the stone, but this gem is nearly eye clean. Don't miss ouf on this great, rare, colorful U.S. gemstone.
