5.75ct Marquise Bicolor Oregon Sunstone

Do you like Red Oregon Sunstones? This is a nice juicy one. There's a hint of sparkling copper schiller inside, but overall, it's a very clear stone. There's a darker red patch at the center that looks almost like a heart. The perfect gift for your sweetheart. Oregon Sunstone, the official state gem, is very rare, only found in one remote part of the state and nowhere else in the world. It's also highly sought after by jewelry professionals who love the distinct look of this unique stone. This particular stone measures 9.4x8.5mm and weighs 2.54ct. It's big enough to be the focal point of a nice custom ring or pendant. Keep in mind that if you're going to make this a ring, it shouldn't be intended as a daily wear ring. It's soft enough on mohs' hardness scale (6.5-7) that it can scratch easily and can be prone to chipping. That being said, if it's in a protective setting, that will help greatly.

This stone looks a lot like a very expensive sunset tourmaline, but it's not. It's a bi-color Oregon Sunstone with shades of pink and gold. The concave cutting ads an extra dimension to this gorgeous gemstone that glistens and gleams with warm tones. This stone would look stunning, set in rose gold, yellow, or white gold. The choice is all yours. This stone measures 12.5mm across and weighs 5.75ct. Good sized stone for a ring or a pendant.

This bright red and gold bi-color Oregon Sunstone has some brilliant color to it. It shows some dazzling "schiller," the name for the tiny bits of copper inside the stone that catch the sun and shine so beautifully. The color is mostly red with hints of orange and gold. As with most Oregon Sunstone, it will change depending upon the light and viewing angle. The stone weighs 6.8ct and measures 17x11mm, making it the perfect size for a pendant or brooch.
