Oregon Sunstone is a feldspar mineral and a type of labradorite that contains large numbers of microscopic copper platelets that produce an interesting play of color. The least valuable form is the colorless to pale yellow followed by the pinks and tans. The most valuable and rarest color is the blue-greens, followed by the greens and reds as well as the bi-colored and tri-colored stones. Stone weighing 12 carat and above of any colors is also considered rare. The more expensive one has no schiller in it and does not color shift.The best greens are very rare and may cost more than the best reds.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Weight and size of gemstone/item may vary slightly from piece to piece due to difference in calibration of our weighing and measuring scales compared to those used by buyers. Colour may also not appear exactly as in real life due to variation in computer monitor resolution and lighting used during photo shooting. Our photos are taken under fluorescent lighting; sometimes torch light and flash light are also used. We will do our very best to represent the accurate pictures of all our items.
