This is a great Blue Spinel, bought right here a week ago for $400. It is a nice stone, well-cut, nice blue color during the day shifting to violet at night (flourescent). Stone weighs a hair over a ct, and measures 8.1x6.5. It is nearly eyeclean, just some tiny bubble inclusions, I can barely make them out. I know I just bought this, but I was just offered a bigger one that I couldn't turn down. I don't need this one and it deserves a better home. I am selling this at a loss...when there is no need to--I bought this stone cheap to begin with...but Im looking for a quick sale. I am unable to accept returns, but I do feel the photos are very accurate. In fact, previous PSr was gracious to allow me to reuse her pics....they are much better than mine!

This is a really nice red Garnet, Precision-Cut by Dan Stair. I would describe it as Medium-Dark, excellent saturation and cutting. It has a bright Red, only very slight orange (if any). This is the closest to Red that I have seen in a Garnet, without being as dark as an Anthill. I believe it to be a Malaya (Mixed Species). It weighs 1.31ct and measures 6.5mm. The stone is eyeclean. Main pic is Dans Pic. Second (awful) pic is mine. The larger stone is the Malaya, the smaller one is an Anthill Garnet there for comparision. If anyone is interested in the anthill Garnet, it is 6MM/1.0ct and I would sell it for $35/Shipped. It is also eyeclean, nice saturated pure red, but like all Anthills it is medium-dark to dark in tone. If you want both stones, I will sell for $75/Shipped. Shipping is included to US or Canada. I cannot accept returns.

This is a red Oregon Sunstone. THe body color is a bright Orangy-Red, and it has awesome Red-Red Flash. It has minimal schiller, barely seen and not distracting. Otherwise, the stone is flawless. This was Precision-Cut by Dan Stair. It weighs 3cts and measures 11.11x6.75. He called the cut a "Fancy Zig-Zag Cut". This is something different, with really nice color and cutting, and best of all it was mined and cut here in the USA. Shipping is Free to US and Canada. Paypal only. I cannot accept returns.

This is a much nicer stone in person--Orange is impossible to photograph accurately. This stone weighs 2.43ct, and measures 11x8mm. It was precision-cut by Dan Stair into a brilliant pear. The stone is a deep color, almost a burnt-orange body color. It has excellent bright Orange flash. A darker but pure Orange, there is no red in this stone. It is really darker than pumpkin, but lighter than burnt Orange. If you like rich colors, with this cutting, you will love this stone. These are getting harder and harder to find in larger sizes (over 2ct) and still being eyeclean. There are no eye visible inclusions in this stone. Ill consider offers.

This is a 2.37ct Indicolite (Blue) Tourmaline. It is an 11x5mm Emerald Cut, and is special because it is a pure, Navy blue. There is no green in this stone. Most of these have some hint of green. This is a dark stone, but it has the nice blue flash that is seen in the photos. The flash is a deeper blue though, not quite as neon as depicted. It is still a very beautiful dark blue gemstone, which is one of the rarer and most expensive types of Tourmaline. The pictures show some inclusions, but these pics are heavily magnified--these inclusions are not seen unless you have a loupe or have the stone up to your eyeball. At 6 inches, it is completely clean. I've discovered I just do not care for Emerald Cuts, so this one is being sold at about half of what it originally cost. Free Shipping to US and Canada.

This is a cute little glowy "Paraiba-type" (Light Blue Tourmaline) from Mozambique. It is a pastel blue, and carries a glow even in very low lighting conditions. This is a pretty good native cut, a 5.5mm Checkerboard-topped Square, and it weighs a hair over a ct, at 1.01ct. It is eyeclean or very close to it, which is hard to find with this material. There are inclusions easily seen with a loupe, however (10x). My asking price is low for this stone, as I have not had it tested for Copper Content. It was sold to me as Cuprian, but I am not pricing it as such. Free Shipping to US and Canada. I am not able to accept returns.

This is a beautiful, large 13ct Oregon Sunstone Carving. This is an all-natural gemstone, mined only in Oregon, here in the USA. This stone weighs 13.05ct and has a stunning carve and polish. It was created by Christine Roussel, a well-known lapidary who has passed away. The colors are pastel, but beautiful, and the Copper shiller flows along the curves...when Sunlight hits it, it is spectacular. Great price on this piece, which is in perfect condition.

I'm selling one of my JXR Amethysts. This one has excellent, deep Purple color with Blue Flash. JXRs are hard to find with good saturation, and this one is also precision-cut in the US by Jerry Call. The stone, 3.45ct, is a cut-cornered Square Cushion, 8MM. It has a very high crown, allowing for nice light return. If you do a search on PriceScope, you will find some history of this stone that dates back to 2009, as I bought it from a PS'r who bought it originally. I had thought about setting it for myself, but I have quite a few JXRs and Im trying to raise money for an upcoming purchase. I paid $200 for it, and I feel that was a GREAT price for the stone, so that is what I am looking to get back from it. It has never left the gem jar other than for pictures, so it is in excellent condition. It should be noted that this material often has eye-visible inclusions, this stone has none under normal viewing (ie without a loupe). I took new pics--the first two I took today in daylight...really make me question wanting to sell, because there is a lot of blue in this stone! The second set of pics do over-emphasize the blues a bit. It is the stone on the left, in the group pic. Ill ship for free as well. I cannot accept returns.

This is a pretty nice example of Rainbow/Blue Moonstone, in a nice larger size. The stone has nice light blue pillows of color, and a slight bit of rainbow color as well, of course it all depends on the lighting and angle of view. The stone has a pretty transparent base, with only a few lines (essential for the effects) visible upon close examination. Otherwise, there are no other inclusions, and the stone has a nice dome and polish. Free Shipping, and I cannot accept returns.

I am a huge fan of Blue Zircon...and I have more than a few! I have decided to sell the 'big boy'. Stone is 7.38ct, and measures 10.86x8.77. It is a nice medium blue, no green in this one. It is what every Aquamarine wishes it was...nice color, awesome dispersion. It deserves to be in a ring, not in my gem jar. This was a 9ct stone that I bought with a native cut, and it was recut by Dan Stair into this 7ct stone. The cut is a portuguese-style oval. I've heard that Blue Zircons values are increasing, and I was lucky enough to buy the native cut stone reasonably, so even with the recut, I am still able to get it under $400 for 7ct. Ill ship for free to US and Canada, and $10 for international. I cannot accept returns. First pic is Dan Stairs pic, and the second two are mine.

This is a nice pair of natural Garnets from Mali, Africa. These Malis are a nice, bright greenish-yellow in real life. The camera saw gold, but they are not gold. In addition to nice color they have strong dispersion! First stone is 1.81ct and measures 7.9x6.1. Second stone is 2.14ct and measures 8.25x6.71 I am not a jeweler, but to my eyes, they look to be close enough for earrings, or mother/daughter rings, etc. They are very very close in color (more so than the pics). These are pretty well-done native step cuts, there are no windows despite how my pics may appear. I will sell the pair for $150 and if you want a single one, I will separate them for $80 a piece.

Im selling some of my colored stones in my collection, and two awesome JXRs. This is one of them! This one is 4.42ct and measures a calibrated 12x10 oval. This is from Brad at the Gem Trader, so it is has an excellent cut. Like all JXRs, it has a nice blue component. A lot of the more recent JXRs on offer at TGT do not have as strong a saturation as this stone has. It is medium to medium-dark in tone (to my eyes) and is a hair lighter than the square cushion but equal in saturation. The clear area in the bottom of the pic is a reflection, there is no zoning or anything in the stone. Free Shipping to US and Canada, $10 to International. I am unable to accept returns. PS I will take some of my own pics (this is Brads) tomorrow if this stone is not sold-but you will NOT be disappointed, it is a beauty.

This is a nice baby pink Ceylon Spinel,which I bought as a native-cut stone and had it recut by Dan Stair. It has nice softer pink color, tons of sparkle/dispersion, with a great cut and polish by Dan. I was lucky enough to find the stone at a great price, so this is a chance to get a really nice light pink stone with a brilliant cut (not the typical step-cut that you always see with Spinel from Asia). It makes a big difference! Free Shipping to US and Canada, $10 for International. I do think its beter in person--I can only do so much with my cameraphone.

I had been on a quest for a white Spinel, and I bought this one for that project. Unfortunately (for me!) it has just a tinge of pink. I'd call it a very pale pink. I purchased it as an Asian-Step cut stone, and I had it recut by Dan Stair into a brilliant-style antique cushion. It has lots of fire and brilliance...very pink-diamond like. This one is eyeclean under the naked eye (but not under a loupe) The stone weighs 1.62ct and measures 7.8x6. I do feel it would probably fit a calibrated 8x6 setting.

This stone is nicer in hand than the pictures show!! This is an Indicolite (blue) Tourmaline, from Nigeria. It has not been tested for Copper Content (some of the Nigerian stones were Cuprian) but it does have nice glow. The stone is a light blue color, very much like a nice Aquamarine. It was a typical pencil-shaped Tourmaline crystal (long and skinny) in the rough, and I decided to have it cut into an Octagon, with some scissor facets to make it interesting. It was precision-cut in the USA by John Miller. I have a low price on the stone due to the extreme dimensions (10x3.5 I think--need to measure) and the inclusions. The stone is almost eyeclean in real life, so I would call it lightly included, but the camera is over-emphasizing the inclusions. Free Shipping to US and Canada, $10 for international.

It is a really nice stone, performs very well--lots of sparkle, dispersion, etc. The stone is now 3.91ct and measures 9.3x7.3mm.

This is a killer yellow Chrysoberyl, which was faceted by an excellent lapidary here in the USA. This is an untreated stone, a very bright yellow with a tinge of orange. The Orange is very slight, as this is mainly a very sweet Yellow gemstone. The stone weighs 1.67ct and measures 6.7mm. It is cut in a custom round design. It is an awesome gemstone. The stone is eyeclean, has great sparkle and Chrysoberyl is a very durable gemstone. This is a very bright stone..there is no brown unlike my pics. The color in real life is closest to the first picture. Im selling it to raise funds, it would make a really great piece of jewelry, instead of living in my gem box. Its never been set.

This is a stone that I've had in my collection, coming from some rough that I aquired from Zambia. The rough was sold to me as Green Beryl, but once the stone was cut, it shows more towards the blue side. It is very much like unheated Aquamarine. The stone weighs .98ct and measures 6mm across, and is a custom cushion-cut, precision-cut in the USA by John Miller. This stone has some inclusions, but it faces up pretty clean.

The stone has an excellent cut, and measures 10mm across in a square cushion. It is eyeclean. The color is a deep, saturated Purple. It has strong blue tones in natural light and more of a red/pink component in flourescent light. It is a dark stone, for sure, but never appears black...just a very strongly saturated velvety purple.

I've gone back and forth about having this stone heated to blue, but I decided to offer this to someone else who may appreciate it for the color it is, or someone who wants to take a chance at what color it will produce. I am pretty sure it will heat to blue, just not sure what tone. Anyways, this is what Blue Tanzanite looks like before it is heated (there are some natural blues, too, but this is not one of them). I would describe the color primarily as a golden/caramel color with a pinkish secondary. The stone measures 8.1x7.9 in a square cushion-cut, and weighs 2.21ct. Free Shipping to US.

I was lucky enough to be able to source two Luc Yen Spinel crystals within the last year. I had both stones cut by AGTA Spectrum-Award winner Jean-Noel Soni into two beautiful, albeit smaller gemstones. These are the very rare, coveted Electric-Blue untreated Spinels from the Luc Yen region of Vietnam. I've decided to sell one of the stones! The one up for sale is a custom rose-cut Trillion, it weighs .60ct and measures 7.36x5.97mm. It can be set as a standard faceted stone, but there is no crown. This was done to preserve as much size and weight as possible for this very rare material. There are eye-visible inclusions in the piece, but I do not think they detract from the vivid Cobalt-Blue Color of the stone. Its difficult to tell from my pics, but this is a transparent stone (I can see how my pics make it look opaque--trust me, it is very much a transparent stone, with probably an Si1 clarity IMO. I didn't post a price here-please contact me and we can work out a deal. I don't normally allow returns but this piece I would allow a short viewing period. This is not an inexpensive piece, but it is extremely rare and almost impossible to buy on the market. I'm Chrisa222 on Pricescope.

Stone has a nice Portuguese cut round, faceted in the US by Dan O'Neil. It has some minor eye-visible inclusions, typical of the origin/material, but they in no way affect the beauty of the stone. The stone is priced with the inclusions in mind. I am allowing a 7-day return period with this stone. This is a big size and sweet color for a Montana Sapphire!

This listing is for a beautiful Unheated Tanzanite. It shows a very strong overall violet color, but there is blue coming from each side. It is a striking stone, with a lot of rolling flash. The stone weighs 1.88ct, and measures 10.77x5.62. It was precision-cut by Jordan Wilkins of Faceting Fantasies. He did a great job with the long, narrow piece of rough. The color is very nice. The stone is eyeclean, too. There is a teeny, tiny chip in the girdle that was left in to preserve size of the stone. You cannot see it face up, and I do not think it would affect the stones integrity if it was to be set. For that reason, I am asking $300 for a stone that should retail for $500+. This rough isn't cheap, and this is a premium cut. If you like violet, you will absolutely love this stone. Im Chrisa222 on PS. Ive sold here on LT, DB, FB, and I've sold on eBay with over 400 transactions and 100% feedback. I accept Paypal. I do not have a return policy but I will make an exception in this case, for 7 days.

The color was next to impossible to photograph. Ive included my pictures, and also Bob Sivinski was kind enough to take a few for me from his setup. Overall my pics (outdoors) show the stone too pale and his show the stone too dark. The stone is a very saturated slightly greenish-yellow, not unlike a fine Chrysoberyl.

Thanks to Jessi Clark-White for helping me get these photos. But, in person it is so much nicer. Static photographs don't show you the brilliance. The color shifts too, from a greenish-yellow to a yellowish-green. It does have nice saturated color. I am taking a loss selling this stone here for $500. I bought the stone as a native cut for $650 and then paid for cutting. Its just that I have two of these and one must go to help finance new stones. $500/shipped. 7 day return policy.

It is untreated, unlike the neon blue Apatites that you see for sale. This piece is so clean--great crystal. Apatite is a softer stone, so this would be a good candidate for a pendant, not a ringstone. It was Precision-Cut by John Miller (finegemcutting.com) and has perfect meets and polish. $2 USA Shipping and $6 International. 3 Day inspection period.

This is really as good as Citrine gets, if you enjoy the richest Madeira-tones. This stone weighs 3.67ct and measures 10.6mm. It is Precision-Cut, and can pass as a Spessartite! I was never a fan of Citrine until I saw examples such as this...and they aren't easy to find. This stone was disclosed as heated-only. It has not been subject to irradiation. It is eyeclean, at least. $2 USA Shipping and $6 International.

Danburite is a great gem if you are unfamiliar with it. It has nice brilliance, durability similar to Quartz (so its suitable for all jewelry purposes aside from an everyday ringstone), and its always untreated. It comes in Colorless, very pale pink, and everything from a pale yellow to a very intense yellow. This, being the pale yellow, is the least costly of the yellows but, unlike the very saturated ones, it doesn't have the rutiles inside so its very clean and brilliant. It even shows some dispersion. I had this piece of rough cut by John MIller (finegemcutting.com) and its a beautiful 7.6mm trillion. I am lising the stone for less than my cost of the cut, let alone the material. $2 USA Shipping and $6 International

This was a commercial-cut stone which had the pavillion re-cut to a brilliant-style to give it the sparkle and performance that Spinel is capable of. Great price for the piece!! Better than my pics!

Clearance Sale!! Mozambique Purple Garnet!! $125 for 2.5ct!!! Video available on request Stone: Mozambique Purple Garnet Weight: 2.5ct Dimensions: 9.2x6.6mm (approx) Cut: Rectangular Cushion brilliant Clarity: Slightly included, but generally eyeclean Here is a rare, in-demand Garnet from a recent discovery in Mozambique. It has a fine slightly reddish-purple color, these are known in the trade as "Mozambique Purple Garnets". This piece is priced very, very low especially considering the size and color. It has some inclusions, but it faces nicely, appearing silky or velvety. I had the pavilion recut by Daniel Stair, so it has no windowing. It does shift to a magenta in incandescent as does all of this material. If you've wanted one in a nice size at a super affordable price, here you go!! Note: this is a medium-dark stone, not over dark, to me it is not as dark as the pics. I can be reached at Chrisa222@yahoo.com or on Facebook under my name (Chris Auletta).

Stone:Apatite Weight: 3.87ct Dimensions: 9.3mm Cut: Cut-Cornered Square Brilliant by John Miller Clarity: Schiller-looking inclusions visible at angle (silt common to this material) Treatment: Heat Origin: Madagascar Photos: Troy Richardson This is a stone I've had in my personal collection for a while but it's time to find a home. The deepest, best-saturated Teal Apatite I've ever seen, and I've seen many. The cutting is fantastic-was a recut of a poorly cut Asscher done by John Miller. The only negative is it has common silt inclusions which have a golden Schiller-type of effect which is seen at angle. It adds beauty and gives this beautiful stone a unique feature. If you hate inclusions though this stone isn't for you. From normal view and dead on you can't see them, as in the picture from far away. Paypal Accepted, 7 Day return period.

Top Color Precision-Cut Tanzanite! Vivid Violetish Blue! $750 Shipped! This one is from my personal collection and never thought I'd sell--it's a very hard to find combination of color, cut, and clarity and I cannot replace it for this price. It's the best-colored Tanzanite I've seen under 5ct. Stone: Tanzanite Weight: 2.21ct Dimensions:8.5mm Cut: Fancy Trillion, top cut and polish Clarity: Eyeclean Treatment: Standard Heat Origin: Tanzania Can't overstate how nice this one is. I've seen a lot of "meh" Tanzanite out there, pale, grayish. This one is as vivid as it gets. The cutting makes all the difference as well, so many of these suffer from poorly executed rounds, with bad windowing. If you don't have proper cutting you don't get the color or the flashes this one provides. Note:Pic on left is my picture which better shows the color and right picture (original vendor pic) shows off the faceting in detail.

This is a beautiful big blue Precision-Cut Tourmaline set in 14k Yellow Gold, size 8 (sizable) with .41ctw side Diamonds (sold as E-VS but not certed). The stone is a stunning large 8.7mm, high crown, tons of sparkle and weighs almost 3ct. It is loupeclean, and shifts from a bright blue to teal to a stormy, greyish blue. Its moody but alwasys beautiful and BIG. I didn't weigh the ring but its heavy and sturdy. I will weigh it tonight and update this listing. I have videos available, and I think I've captured all the moods. Ive priced it low for what it is, hoping that a Pricescoper could own it and post it in the "affordable colored rings" thread! Selling this as a personal piece, I don't want to offer a return option, unlike the colored stones that I sell. This is something that Ive had made for myself but I'm looking at a big move and need the funds. Please ask any and all questions about the piece. Payment will be Paypal Friends and Family.

This is another awesome ring from my personal collection. Im slowly liquidating my own pieces to afford a big move coming up. As a colored stone seller, over time I've kept some of the very best pieces and had them set. This stone is right on the border of yellow and orange. It is 3.34ct, measures 9x7, Precision-Cut rectangular cushion and comes with a cert heat-only. It is set in a very well-made, sturdy, bezel setting in 18k White Gold. Stone and setting made hy Jeff Davies. Still pics don't really do this ring any justice. Sparkles like mad, and the color appears washed out in my pics. It is closer to Jeffs pic. Yes it is that bright. This is a final sale. Please ask any and all questions. Im selling this at a huge discount. The stone itself was much more than Im asking for the whole ring! Note, there are very minor scuffs which will easily be polished out. I can be reached at Chrisa222@yahoo.com or on facebook under my name Chris Auletta.
