Second
Chance at a wonderfully etched meteorite on one side and the naturally
occurring original surface on the other – read more on the auction site…
Two
Certed 3+ Spinels recently arrived, one being a purply rose and the other more
of a purple – both priced to move…
We
have 3 faceted Umbalite Garnets, one square, one square cushion and one round,
with the same properties: depending on the lights, the color can be
burgundy wine, ruby red or magenta. The round we have yet to obtain a
good photo of – it is available, weighs over 6cts and is priced the same as the
other two per carat.
Gemstones in Cutting:
We have two large 100ct Oregon Sunstones that will be carved
and/or cut by the multi-award winning cutter, Dalan Hargrave.
These should be available with the next few months.
We anticipate having two more Ametrines in faceting, by two
different cutters with two very different styles – both artists have been
making a name for themselves!
All That Glitters In The News:
Trapiche-like
Amethyst from Brazil - GIA just released the Summer 2018 Edition of Gems &
Gemology Magazine with an article on new gem-related material that they
expressed an interest in examining more closely, after L. Allen Brown’s discussion
with them at the GIA Booth within the AGTA Show, Jan/Feb 2018. The article has
just been released online and in print. All four new acquisitions appear
in the article, with three being available for sale!
All
That Glitters Unique and Rare Gemstones have appeared in Gems & Gemology Magazine on a regular basis,
with the first article being 1996 noting the newly discovered Imperial Malaia
Garnet, named by the owner of All That Glitters.
Gerard
Quintin from the South American Gem Academy contacted All That Glitters about
an upcoming article as he desired some of our unique fine examples of
Ametrine. Geoffrey Dominy, whom we met and have been in contact with for
about 30 years, then reached out for more photos and info for this
article. The World Gem Foundation is responsible for Gemology Today, and
Geoff is the founder, as well as a relatively new publisher of books on
gemstones. We expect some of our gemstone to be in his future books as
well as other articles. The Ametrine article may be viewed on the
