Newly Faceted or Newly Photographed Gemstones: 

http://www.atggems.com/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!


New LOWER Price!:

On our Padparadscha Sapphire/Sapphire/Certed Gems Pages, we have lowered the price of three Sapphires –

two of these Sapphires have Pad Certs from outside of the U.S. and the third doesn’t have a cert.  One of these certed Sapphires could possibly cert as a Pad but the other certed one we don’t feel really has much of a chance in a lab such as GIA or AGL –they are both certed as Unheated which is a plus as 99% of  Sapphire and Ruby are heated (doesn’t have any affect other than there are those who seek unheated gems of all varieties).  The uncerted gem might get a Pad cert – but it sure has a nice color.  All three of these gems have a New Lower Price…   DON’T MISS OUT ON THESE.


Tucson Time!(?):

No Tucson for All That Glitters for 2022…

Though we have had reservations for quite some time, due to Omicron and the fact that we are planning on consolidating offices and just continuing to maintain our main office/headquarters in Massachusetts, the timing for a transition from the West Coast back to Massachusetts requires our full attention during the typical Tucson timeframe.  So with regret, we are cancelling our Tucson plans for 2022 – and we will not be able to meet with those flying in internationally or our usual associates/customers in the U.S.  However, we are always available to ship items of interest whenever and wherever desired!  This being said, we made in roads over the past 13 years in California and the surrounding states during our winters on the West Coast and will be glad to consolidate and have any of the All That Glitters inventory immediately available to the trade or our online customers!


Gemstones in Cutting:

None of our rough is in the hands of U.S. cutters or even on the dop of the owner of All That Glitters.  Our faceting machine is in our main office but we are returning within a few weeks!  Once back in our main office there is hope that a few very special gemstones will come off the dop in the future once settle down.

Three gemstones failed to make it through the cutting process for various reasons back in early 2021.  We are hoping for better luck in 2022.

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….
