I call this "Bold" because the chain bail is extra wide, solid and very rich looking. This bold size bail is in perfect harmony with the large, 8mm round Peach Oregon Sunstone. At 8mm, this Sunstone is about 1.75 carats!
The pendant length is about 3/4 inch & includes an 18" Sterling Silver Box chain, about 1.00mm in width. This is a great weight for this pendant but if you would like a heavier chain, check out our Silver Round Box chain.
In our opinion this large, 1.75 carat Sunstone, is a great size to be worn around the neck. This size easily displays the unique Peachy color and "Schiller" present in this fine example of Oregon Sunstone.
“Schiller” is unique to Oregon Sunstones. This is when copper particles are suspended within the feldspar crystal looking like sparkles inside the gemstone. This phenomenon is 100% natural and every Oregon Sunstone that displays Schiller is completely unique.
We are lucky to be able to offer this necklace with consistent Color & Schiller. It is difficult to maintain a significant supply of well match gems due to Sunstone's natural variation in color. Order one now! Supply is limited.
