What is Oregon Sunstone?
Oregon Sunstone is one of the rarest and most precious gemstones. It's only found in the southeastern part of Oregon. It's a true treasure of the Pacific Northwest. Because of its amazing range of colors, it can pale peach or deep coppery reds. Some even show a special effect known as "schiller," giving it a shimmering look caused by tiny bits of copper. This natural phenomenon gives the stone an otherworldly glow, especially when viewed either in direct sunlight or artificial lighting.
Oregon Sunstone has a distinctive rich warmth of color and can often display copper inclusions that make the stone appear radiant, as if ethereal. Oregon Sunstone, set into jewelry or in the raw form, is sure to draw attention and admiration.
