Rare Schiller Oregon Sunstone Cabochons

Choose from four gorgeous, yummy gems with Schiller inclusions.

All four Oregon Sunstone Cabochons are beautifully polished and ready to become part of your collection. Each one shows rich peach to red color with attractive eye visible Schiller phenomenon (copper platelets).

Schiller Effect:

Oregon Sunstone is a unique labradorite sub-group of the abundant feldspar mineral. Feldspar can be found in several parts of the world in yellow and transparent colors. Only the Oregon Sunstone exhibits the tiny copper platelets formed inside the stone which create a luminous metallic effect within the stone called “Schiller.” These copper mineral inclusions are usually arranged parallel to the direction of perfect cleavage in the feldspar crystal, so the glittering reflection is only seen when looking at the cleavage surface.

Choices:

1. Red/Orange: 9 x 7mm Pear Shape 1.81 carats
2. Peach: 13 x 9mm Pear Shape  4.23 carats
3. Peach: 14 x 10mm Oval Shape  5.92 carats
