Do you have a sunstone? how many types of sunstone do you know about ? In this article, let’s talk about the whole sunstone family！
1. Arusha Golden Sunstone
The first Sunstone I want to introduce is Arusha Golden Sunstone. I know, this name might sound a little strange . “Arusha” actually refers to the origin , it’s a beautiful city in Tanzania, And only this place has the mine of this crystal in the world. So Arusha sunstone price is much higher than other sunstones. Personally, this is my favorite sunstone , because it has :
. Deepest orange red color
. Strongest flash
. Best transparency
Compared to other sunstones,
These 3 features make it look like a real Sun !
2. Golden Sand Sunstone
Second one is the Golden Sand Sunstone. This material might be new to you but it’s more popular in China.
.Golden Sand Sunstone is named for the fine, glittering particles on its surface, resembling golden sand on a sunlit beach.”,
.For Some high-quality pieces even have cat’s eye flash or starlight.
3. Peach Sunstone (Peach Moonstone?)
The third one is the peach Sunstone. Interestingly, many sellers and collectors call this Peach Moonstone, but let me clarify – this is actually a type of Sunstone.
I know this can be confusing, so in the future, I’ll make another video to explain the difference between Sunstone and Moonstone.
. Peach sunstone has less glitters than the 2 sunstone I mentioned above
. But high quality peach sunstone has lovely pinkish color . Look at this one , it’s pink not just peach .
4.Black currant sunstone
The fourth one is black currant sunstone ,
Also called coffee sunstone , it has deeper color , but what really makes me like it is the amazing red flash on the surface , Sometimes it is rare , because the production is not stable enough .
5. Black Sunstone / Silver Sunstone
Finally, let me introduce a new discovered Sunstone, the black sunstone ! also known as Silver Sunstone .
. Black sunstone is very different from the others , because it’s the only black color sunstone in the world.
. And it has many silver color glitter inside, for high quality black sunstone , when you put it in sunlight, it looks like a starry night sky! That’s very cool!
