Peachy Orange Oregon Sunstone & Diamond Pendant

A staff favorite, this Oregon sunstone pendant expertly combines beautiful jewelry with fascinating gemology and local significance. The pendant is crafted from solid 14k white gold, featuring yellow gold prongs that secure a 3.23-carat natural Oregon sunstone. This sunstone exemplifies the species, showcasing a light red color with peachy orange undertones that sparkle brilliantly. Upon close inspection, you can see subtle glittering inclusions within the gem, known as schiller, which occurs when flakes of copper become trapped in the sunstone during its formation.

This is a natural and untreated sunstone, a type of feldspar similar to moonstone, and it is only found in one location in Eastern Oregon. Because of this rarity, the sunstone is designated as the official state gemstone of Oregon. Finding a sunstone with remarkable color, excellent cutting, and pleasing schiller is a rare treasure, making this pendant a unique offering. If you are an Oregon native, look no further for your next favorite piece of jewelry!
