Before the cut

From rough stone to custom jewelry

Sunstone rough glitters with copper flakes that light up once polished. We design pieces that carry that warm sparkle. Tell us if sunstone caught your eye and we will start your design.

What to look for

Deep green, deep red and intense bicolors are extra fine.

Transparent stones show their color best. Visible cracks lower value.

Copper inclusions create a lively glitter. Bright, even sparkle is the prize.

Large faceted stones are uncommon.
