Vivid green Swat Valley Pakistan emerald .39ct

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. Measures 12.2x7.6mm and is 6.3mm deep. Weight is 1.92ct.

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.

This Swat Valley emerald has a vivid green color, good clarity, and luster. It measures 8x6mm and weighs 1.83ct. This stone is the perfect size for a ring or pendant. Swat Valley emeralds are known for their outstanding color and interesting inclusions. They've been mined in this area for over 2000 years. Many believe the color of these emeralds is as good or better than those from the best mines in Columbia. The stone has minor oil treatment, only on the rough.
