Newly Faceted or Newly Photographed Gemstones:
http://www.allthatglitters.co/Photos_New.htm
We
have recently photographed a number of cases where our gemstones are stored and
created lists of what these cases contain.
Some of the colored gemstones might surprise you as to their actual
identities!
An
Oregon Sunstone, with various colors but predominately light green with hints
of blush, was completed by the owner of All That Glitters from rough recently
purchased on the Oregon Sunstone Trip back in June! Nice shape, great
colors, super cutting!
Faceted
by the owner of All That Glitters, a 38.14ct Blue Russian YAG (Yttrium Aluminum
Garnet) has come off the dop. Check out the photo and video!
After literally a 3 year wait, two large important Oregon Sunstones have been returned to us from one of our specialty cutters. It was June of 2018 when two approx. 100ct pieces of Oregon Sunstone rough were sent to a multi-award winning cutter (DH). As two pieces done by this cutter in the past were returned about 6 months after being received, we expected the same timeframe and that is what was conveyed to us. That timeframe stretched into 2.5 years; he stated numerous times that he would start them soon – but that never happened and we requested them returned in November of 2020. We sent these two pieces to a very capable cutter who studied under the previous cutter noted – and in 6 months, we finally had the results! After a three year wait, we have two Oregon Sunstones which weigh almost 40cts each – a 35+ct Elongated Cushion with sharp corners, of a coppery orange color with some schiller and a 38+ct Equilateral-Looking Triangular piece which glitters/sparkles in all directions and is of a light yellow color. Both are hand grooved vs. flat faceted.
New Page:
We
have added a new page to our website. A
few of the cases our gemstones are stored in have been photographed along with
a description of those gemstones. Some
of these do not appear on our website but only in our Inventory Lists. We wanted to share more images of available
gems to the public/trade. We hope to
post more images in the future as they become available.

Gemstones in Cutting:
Three gemstones failed to make it through the cutting process
for various reasons.
There
is very little new rough presently and we already have representations faceted
from that rough, including: Blue Flash Amethyst, Blended Ametrine,
Tourmaline, Color Change Diaspore, Yellow Beryl, Color Change Garnet, Umbalite
and Rhodolite Garnet, Synthetic Alexandrite and others….
*** Buy Yourself a Gift for the Past 1.5 Years of Living in a
Pandemic *** :
Not
sure if you are similar to the owner of All That Glitters and some others we
have spoken with, but many feel
that
they deserve something special for having gotten through the past 1.5 years
because of the World Pandemic.
With
all the stress, being couped up and locked down, restrictions, not being able
to go out, for most no indoor dining, seeing friends or relatives…the list goes
on and on and on. We deserve to purchase something very special and
unique for ourselves – literally a gift for ourselves that we would really like
and appreciate for the past hard/difficult times. Regardless of what it
is, whether it is a gemstone, piece of jewelry, a painting, oriental rug,
clothes, a car or bike, a vacation, fine wine – buy it for yourself and enjoy
it! SPLURGE on Yourself – You Deserve it! We all deserve something
special after the stressful years of 2020 and 2021!… (2021 is coming to a close – Now is the Time)
