When in concert with phenomenal gem materials, the work of the late Tom Munsteiner is even more impressive - that is why enjoy his work with Oregon Sunstone so much. This variety of Feldspar is well known for its range of color and presence of elemental copper platelets which catch the light and result in a 'schiller' effect. Here you have a stone that combines the contemporary carving design that Munsteiner is known for with this lovely copper flash. A great stone, finished in the highest tradition of Idar-Oberstein work. In the second photo we have used transmitted light to show how the design will face-up when in-hand or set. Unmounted Munsteiner stones are always scarce in the market and this one is complete with signed certificate from Atelier Munsteiner.
