Rare Pink Diaspore from Afghanistan. 2.17ct
$651.00
Lovely and surprising pink diaspore from Afghanistan.
This relatively new gemstone is physically the same material as the Turkish diaspore, trade named Zultanite but look at this color! In low light it’s a mauve or purple, but in bright sunlight is bright pink. This deposit was discovered in 2020 and appears to be very limited. Totally untreated with beautiful tube inclusions throughout.
This particular stone is beautifully cut and weighs 2.17ct and measures 10.6×5.6mm. This stone would be ideal in a ring or a pendant.

1.92ct Oregon Fire Opal Pear
This nearly 2ct Oregon Fire Opal glistens and gleams and catches the sun throwing prismatic effects.
There is an internal fracture more easily seen from the bottom of the stone than the top. I've reduced the price because of this but I'm my opinion it's still a very pretty stone that would look great in a pendant.

2ct Swat Emerald ring solitaire in 14k yellow gold
This ring has the most amazing 2ct Emerald from Swat Valley Pakistan. I've put it in a simple solitaire design with a 3mm band. Traditionally set in buttery 14k gold.
If she loves emeralds, she's going to absolutely love this ring.
The vivid green color of this emerald is perfect, and there's just a minor oil treatment only. The jardin (natural inclusions) are just lovely. I sourced this rough straight from the miners in Pakistan and its top quality. Swat emerald has been mined for over 2000 years and rivals the color of thy finest Columbian emeralds, but for a much better price.
This ring would sell for over $5000 at a fancy retail store. Get it from me instead for $1800 and spend the rest on an awesome honeymoon.
Ring is a size 7 but can be easily resized by any local jeweler.
Breathtaking blue .75ct Madagascar sapphire
This is a breathtakingly blue untreated Madagascar sapphire. The color is just spectacular. With a little bit of silk, a little bit of color zoning but overall a majestic royal blue that just shouts, "Look at me!"
Madagascar sapphires are renowned for their color. This one came from a stone that had just a hint of yellow mixed with this amazing blue. The results are stunning, and as an unheated stone, this color is as close to the perfect sapphire blue you're going to get.
This is the perfect stone for a ring or pendant and is large enough to be a center stone or could work being set with other stones as an accent.
The weight is .75ct, and it measures 6mmx5mm. Cut in a nice juicy pear shape.
Incredible 5.6ct pink/purple diaspore
Have you heard of pink diaspore?
While most are familiar with Turkish diaspore, the green/brown variety of the gemstone sold under the trade name "Zultanite" few are aware of this new variety found in Afghanistan.
Pink diaspore is a rare and remarkable gemstone known for its captivating pink hues, ranging from soft blush to vibrant fuchsia. This gemstone exhibits a mesmerizing color-changing phenomenon, displaying different shades depending on the lighting conditions. It transitions from a delicate pink in natural daylight to a warm mauve or champagne tone under incandescent lighting, making it truly unique and versatile.
It was discovered in 2020 and wasn't available until after the pandemic opened things back up. This rare and beautiful stone is for those who want to be adventurous and the first to have the latest new trends.
I have only a few pieces of this rare gem available. Cut in a bar pattern that accentuates the color shifting; you can see it go from lavender to pink in the twinkle of an eye.
Stone weighs 5.6ct and measures 10.4x8.2mm and is 6mm deep. I've seen pink diaspore retailing for over $1000/ct, but my wholesale price is far less.

This particular stone is cut with a very deep pavilion, making the green that much more intense. Color is a vivid green, with small inclusions.
