Vivid green Swat Valley Pakistan emerald .39ct

This Oregon Fire Opal weighs 1.12ct and measures 8.8x6.4mm. The stone is more translucent than transparent, and there are streaks of milky white mixed with the golden yellow that make this an interesting piece. It would look great set with Carnilean in my opinion and either as a ring or a pendant will look great.

What do you love about Pink diaspore? I love that it's a relatively unheard of stone. While it might look similar to stones like Amythist, purple sapphire, spinel or perhaps even morganite, it is the little inclusions that run through the stone, giving each its own unique fingerprint. The stone also exhibits color change like its Turkish cousin Zultanite. Where Zultanite changes from brown to green, this has a subtle lavender to pink change in bright sunlight. It was first brought to market in Peshawar Pakistan after being discovered in neighboring Afghanistan. The miners and people who literally risk their lives to bring a few handfuls of this material across the border into Pakistan are the true heroes here. One handful of stones can feed a family for a year. This particular stone measures 10.8x6.9mm and weighs 3.68ct. It's a good size for either a ring or a pendant.
