People sometimes scoff at the idea of a champagne colored Oregon Sunstone. They're much more common than the pinks, reds, or greens, but sometimes they can be just as beautiful. The fact that they're more common also means a very affordable price. This 1.9ct Oregon Sunstone trillion is champagne in color with a little bit of copper schiller to add some extra sparkle. In the sun, you'll see shades of pink and green in it as well as that golden champagne color. The size is perfect for a ring or a pendant at 8.3mm.

Oregon Sunstone, the always natural and untreated state gem is a rare feldspar containing copper, which gives it not only a wide range of colors, but also the aventurescent quality called "schiller" from thousands of microscopic bits of copper inside the stone. Usually, these crystals get only as large as 60-70cts before being cut. Often, bigger crystals have fractures, which makes cutting large stones over 10cts difficult. This stone, however, is not the norm. It weighs a massive 22.9ct and measures 23x17mm. It's the largest stone in my inventory. Just being large isn't the only thing that makes this stone special, though. The tri-color green, pink, and gold or "mystique" color is one of the rarest for Oregon Sunstone. Watch the colors shift and move as the stone turns. The concave cutting on this gem also ads to the brilliance, giving it a radient shine. It is truly a one of a kind masterpiece.

OMG! This Oregon Sunstone is an absolute showstopper. I am tempted to set it into a piece, but I'd rather see it go into someone's own custom jewelry creation. Each Oregon Sunstone is unique, and this one is a unicorn for sure. Weighing 6.7ct, it measures 11.5mm around and 9.7mm deep. When I saw this rough, I knew it had to be a deep cut, and this Portuguese with 161 facets really does it justice. Look at the brilliance here. In natural light or artificial, the green and coppery pink bi-color nature of this all natural stone really shines through. Imagine a custom ring or pendant with this, set in yellow gold, rose gold, white gold, or platinum. This will always get people talking. This is the rarest color Oregon Sunstone there is, and it can be yours at miner direct pricing for far less than the typical retail price.
