Note that those gemstones below are being offered at their Initial Public Offering (IPO) and typically priced to move quickly. Prices may increase on any particular gemstone depending on market conditions and the fact that many of All That Glitters items are One of a Kind...
All That Glitters is known for searching throughout the world for the Finest Gemstones and Rough of high quality and uniqueness. Lower quality material may be be found online or in stores, but few have the exceptional material that we offer the trade and our online customers. Gemstones will only be added to our inventory if color, size, cutting, clarity and price match our strict criteria!
We are back from attending the Tucson Gem, Rock and Mineral Shows - we believe we first attended the shows 39 years ago. We have purchased a total of 20 items while away and this includes: 15 gemstones / 2 mineral specimens / 3 pieces of rough These gemstones include some very exiciting pieces such as a number of "Special" Montana Sapphires, Wonderful (and small) Color Change Zircon from Burma, Grey Spinel which are our firsts in 45+ years in business, Tourmaline, Blue/Purple Spinel, Demantoid Garnet, Matched Pair of 8mm Round Tanzanites as well as a 9mm Round all of deep glowing blue depending on the lights and there are also two cabs that we purchased elsewhere with one including what is called Iolite Sunstone which is a new find and has been getting lots of play in the gemstone world after it was the center gemstone in a well-known custom designed jewelry contest! We are working diligently to get the photos and videos of this items posted, so stay tuned!
| Reddish Pink UNHEATED 1.69ct MONTANA Sapphire! | |
|
|
|
|
| A wonderful bright lively 1.69ct UNHEATED Montana Sapphire from Rock Creek whose body color may shift depending on available lights. Hard to exactly pin down the color, though it does look like a magenta or pink, but certainly appears more red under some lights. We have photographed the gemstone from the back also, as you can see the various colors that the crystal displays, which is unique and provides a blending of color. Rough from faceted by a diamond cutter and was obtained by an associate of ours whome we have known over the past 40 years. Currently not for sale as we hope to send this to GIA for a GemID as well as Origin. (berngm-26-01) | |

| Uniquely Colored Montana Sapphire (1.64cts) - UNHEATED! | |
|
|
|
|
| Here is another similar Montana Sapphire to the one above, this one being just slightly less in weight weighing 1.64cts. A unique color depending on the lights and one can see why when one flips over this gemstone, as it is a parti-colroed Sapphire showing a number of various color zonings which blends to create the color you see when looking at it from the top through the table. Parti-colored Sapphires which show the distinct colors when viewed from the top are very much in demand and more so with respect to Montana Sapphires. The color is difficult to describe, but could be said to take on an orangy color to even more red depending on the lights. This is also UNHEATED and faceted by a diamond cutter - and again, was obtained from an associate of ours whom we have known for about 4 decades - and one of the reasons why we have such interesting gemstones! This beauty also hails from the Rock Creek locality. Currently not for sale as we hope to send this to GIA for a GemID as well as Origin. (berngm-26-02) | |

| Blue Montana Sapphire Weighing 2.43cts |
 |
| Hailing again from Rock Creek, this large 2.43ct Blue Montana Sapphire was again faceted by a diamond cutter who has been working with one of our decades old associates and we are thrilled to have this MT Sapphire in inventory. Said to be heated. We might be sending this one to GIA for GemID and Origin also! (berngm-26-03) |

| 2.41 ct Fancy Cut Blue Montana Sapphire |
 |
| A Fancy Cut 2.41ct Blue Montana Sapphire from the Eldorado Bar on the upper banks of the Missouri River!
Sapphire rough from the Eldorado Bar on the upper Missouri River commonly exhibits a hexagonal or tabular hexagonal shape,
often described as plates, prisms, or flattened, water-worn hexagonal crystals. In the past, these shallow shapes posed a challenge
(and still do!) to cutters as one must facet a much smaller gemstone than desired and frequently not even attempt at faceting it at all.
Some designs/cutting styles lend themselves to the shallowness or shape, and in this case, the Multi-Award Winning Cutter, Chris Wolfsberg,
utilized his knowledge and skill to create this unique shape while having a very shallow gemstone but still manages to maintain brilliance!
Wolfie has faceted many pieces from All That Glitters rough over the past decade plus. Here is an example of his expertise saving a piece of
rough and creating a unique/beautiful gemstone. In two of All That Glitters other Montana Sapphires, you will see a hexagon shape which essentially
follows the shape of this rough which is frequently found in these Montana Sapphires.
Difficult to get a true color in this case, but it is some variation of blue! At Only $2500/ct, this is at $6025. (blzngm-26-01) An incredibly beautiful piece of jewelry can be made utilizing this unique shape and gem material! |

| 1.44ct Demantoid Garnet from Namibia | |
|
|
| A 1.44ct Round Demantoid Garnet from Namibia with incredible Dispersion/Fire like a Diamond. A few inclusions are to be found under power, but not really noticeable with the naked eye - for this material, it can be expected and may help to determine natural origin and country of origin.

| 9mm Round Deep Glowing Purple/Blue Tanzanite |
 |
| A large 9mm Round Glowing Blue or Purple Tanzanite depending on the lights. This is the best color available for this material in this size. Would make a great ring or pendant - $2256. (Obtaining the correct color to display on a webpage is not necessarily accurate to what the eye sees - but the color is really fine and will be depending on available lighting.) (tsco-26-01) |
|
|
| Super Matching Pair of 8mm Deep Purple Blue Tanzanites |
 |
| The color of this matched pair of 8mm Round Deep Blue/Deep Purple Tanzanites is similar to the large single 9mm above. Color is dependent on available lights. VERY difficult to find matched Tanzanites, as you not only have to have the same cutting design so they reflect in the same way, but Tanzanite can be more purple or more blue in individual gems, so you have to match the color exactly. These would be great in earrings or perhaps on the side of a center diamond or other colored gem - perhaps utilizing the 9mm round above, making a ring that has a 9mm center with two 8mms on each side! These gems are matched so that they could be used in a ring as the match is really good in both the cutting and in the colors! $3398 (Obtaining the correct color to display on a webpage is not necessarily accurate to what the eye sees - but the color is really fine and will be depending on available lighting.)

| Teal Sapphire and a 3.07ct One Too! |
| A Beautiful Large Teal Sapphire weighing 3.07cts. Teal is VERY popular and finding a fine true Teal color in Sapphire is difficult. We feel very confident that you won't find something similar in a store and the prices for even dark inexpensive Sapphire in the retail market will probably cost you the same price per carat as this fine one....

| COLOR CHANGE Burmese Zircon
GIA Certed! - Simply the Best Color Change Available... DEEP BLUE TO DEEP GREEN! |
| What has been sold as Color Changing Zircon from Burma has been VERY Disappointing in general compared to the photos originally seen of this material - like many Alexandrites, Padparadschas, Rubys, Color Changing Diaspore and others, when professional companies photograph these items in jewelry or as loose gemstones, they will usually modify the color to the point where it no longer resembles what the gemstone actually looks like - and it is always to their advantage. The color change Zircons seen in Bangkok were very disappointing and one has to use their imagination to see the color change; the same was true for the most part in Tucson, though there was a few gemstones that were quite impressive. Usually the gemstones are on the larger side being at least 5cts and some seen were even 15 cts and more. One exceptional gemstone of this species/phenomenon is this example and it is perhaps one of the smallest but finest color change for this relatively new find in Burma. Weighing only 2.04cts, this brilliant Trilliant goes from a nice blue to a vivid deep green as seen in the videos. This gemstone was important enough for the original owner to have it certed by GIA - click the link below. There is no need to spend $7000+ for some of the better material when you can have this super color changing example at a fraction of the price. (3090gm-26-01) Only $3468 |

| Color Change Spinel - A Beauty! |
| A Beautiful Blue 3.23ct Oval Spinel. This is what was seen when this gemstone was first viewed and the color blue, the brilliance, the dispersion seen under those lights said - Buy Me! But there was a surprise to be had after the purchase... seems that this is not just a Blue Spinel but also a Purple Spinel, as when it was taken to other lights, it was definitely a purple! So this piece had even more going for it than originally thought! It is a beautiful fine blue and will also be a nice rich purple under other lights - nothing like having two gemstones for the price of one! Spinels are very popular and pricing has gone up and this one is below what one expects in the trade. (There are a few what looks to be needles when the gemstones is viewed from the back, but don't believe it can be seen from the front as it will be viewed/worn) Priced to move at $5491.

| B - A really fine example of Bicolor Tourmaline and a Unique One at that! Weighing 3.00ct, this Bicolor is from Mozamique and is a vivid bright green in one half and the other half is clear. Small inclusions near the boundary which is very characteristic of bicolors at the color separation - not even noticed with naked eyes/glasses, but during the photography process. Inconsequential.

| Iolite "Sunstone" |
| This is a NEW FIND coming out of India. It is the Gemstone Iolite (Mineral = Cordierite) that has inclusions that
are similar to Sunstone. There have been a few jewelry contests where one of the winning entries utilized this material. In searching for
more information, the following was found:
"Iolite Sunstone is a rare, natural hybrid gemstone primarily from India, combining lavender-blue Cordierite (Iolite) with sparkly, reddish-orange Feldspar (Sunstone) inclusions. Known as a "stone of leadership," it balances dreamy, intuitive energy with practical, joyful motivation. It blends Third Eye (insight) and Solar Plexus (power) chakra energies, aiding in self-confidence, creativity, and finding one's path. Key Characteristics and Benefits: Appearance: Displays a unique, shimmering effect (aventurescence) caused by inclusions of hematite or copper-colored platelets within the blue-violet, translucent stone. Iolite Properties: Often called the "Viking Compass". It is believed to aid in mental clarity, inner vision, and reducing stress. Sunstone Properties: Associated with energy, joy, and, vitality. Combined Benefits: The combination is used to: Boost Confidence: Encourages independence and helps in saying "no". Enhance Intuition: Promotes inner wisdom, often used in meditation. Balance Energy: Harmonizes the Third Eye and Solar Plexus chakras, fostering a balance between dreaming and doing. As seen in the photo, due to the inclusions, the polish on the surface may show some pitting or other depressions. It is an interesting material especially if you have a loupe, magnifying glass or microscope, as you can see the rainbow patterns of the inclusions and the various shapes and spend some time admiring this unique material. $90 (nshgm-26-01) |

| A - So beautiful and unique, these items were an attention grabber and some time was spent choosing some very interesting pieces for inventory. These are supposed to be naturally wind blown/etched Agate pieces from the Gobi Desert, specifically the Upper Mongolia area. There were some green pieces, but we were told and also read, that these would have been heated. These are certainly natural Agates and most likely from the Gobi Desert, but cannot be certain that they were etched by the wind/sand or perhaps in other ways. They are interesting and beautiful and we had to purchase two pieces! This piece weighs approx 536cts. For the time being, they are priced at only $0.75 per carat! $402 (exam-26-01) | |
| B - Description as above, but this example weighs 739cts and has a druzy overlay, which was really not seen in all of the other pieces that we viewed, and is at $1/ct or $739. (exam-26-02) | |

The next 10 gemstones represent purchased made while in Asia for one month. In that months time frame, we only selected 10 gemstones that we felt were unique and well priced, as prices on the wholesale level are much higher over the past few years as noted in a number of articles we have published as our Monthly Gem News. In the past, a month abroad might produce about 150 new gemstones in inventory, after viewing many tens of thousands of pieces (if not more) over that timeframe. Due to pricing and existing inventory, we have had to be even MORE selective than in the past. We seek those items that are high quality, unique/uncommon for some reason, decently faceted, eye clean depending on the species and rarity, of a size worthwhile for center gemstones in jewelry – and very importantly, those that have value right up front.

One of those uncommon/rare fancy unheated colors occasionally found in Zoisite – which when blue/purple, is called Tanzanite. We also have Fancy Tanzanite in Teal, Orange and Green which can be found on the All That Glitters Tanzante page. A must have for those who collect or desire something different, unique and no common.

| Sapphire, 3.47ct, Emerald Cut, Color Change from Deep Blue to Purple. Origin is suspected to be Madagascar. A darker gem but with the right lights it glows blue or purple. Some inclusions, might be visible under bright lights or those with very good eyesight, but fascinating to look at these under power as you have crystals with some looking like shooting stars. Apologizing for the poor photo, but will try for a better one in the future - initially trying different light sources to show the color change but only got one photo that gives an idea of what it looks like...

| Another Rarity and New Find!! Clear Garnet (Grossular – Cushion Shape -5.44ct) – in order for Garnet, Sapphire,
Spinel and some other gemstones to be clear, there cannot be any elemental impurities other than what makes
up a particular gemstone species. Any element other than this, will cause the crystal/gemstone to have some
color – even if very light in saturation/tone. This is a new find and quite rare. Said by some to be from Tanzania,
the origin noted by someone more in the know is Zambia – some are trying to keep the origin under wraps.
Unfortunately, most of the material is all small and has white inclusions which are obvious to the unaided eye.
Larger pieces are typically the same – larger but with these white inclusions, but larger is still more
uncommon that the one carat-ers (plus/minus). However, there are always rare exceptions which this particular
gemstone represents. Eye clean but if louped there are a few inclusions (which are interesting) and large,
as well as certed, this is a special gem. Our friend/associated had a certed piece (smaller than the one here)
that was eye clean and decent size also, but we passed on this due to price. We were lucky enough to find one
certed piece of good size(!) and clarity – so we grabbed it! It was less in price per carat than our associates
as well as larger - so we can offer our customers an even better deal on this rarity!
NOTE - Pantones Color of the Year is White! So clear stones are in this year so this rarity should be even more popular! (sdcl-25-01) $1000/ct - $5440 |

| Natural Alexandrite 0.98ct Oval! Color Change is Green or Teal to Bluish Purple. As always, Alexandrite color changes are difficult to capture in a photo – excuse the poor photo clarity, but you at least get an idea of the color change under various lights. For the size, we are giving this away when one compares the wholesale pricing of anything decent in Natural Alexandrite. This is old inventory from an associate/friend in the business whom we hadn’t see in 10 years, but with recent travels abroad, we did purchase this beauty as well as a 2.7+ct Deep Power Blue Lively Sapphire at a great price! A few inclusions, but don't believe they are visible for the most part with the naked eye. As usual, there is frequently bleed through of more than one color when viewing the gemstone under lights. This was taken to numerous light sources and photographed, but most photos were out of focus and as is typical with this material, the color in the photo was different than what the eye was seeing. We have done our best to obtain images that looks like what you may see under the best lighting. (vp2gm-25-02) $6860 Enjoy the Savings! |

| Don't think much has to be said about this Montana Sapphire, as the picture can speak for itself... This is a U.S. Gemstone and faceted in the U.S. by a cutter known for his cutting of Montana Sapphires. The rough came from El Dorado Bar and was cut in this beautiful hexagon and weighs a whopping 2.86cts. Color is various blues depending on the lighting being viewed under.

| This gemstone is being reposted here - though the price for this gem was correct, the original price per carat noted was incorrect. Also, we have added a photo of the price seen for a topaz at the Tucson 2024 Show, with the label and price shown, though the color is less orange and therefore less in price. Our current price is what one would expect as a trade/wholesale price if one could find one for sale from the trade - though, in viewing other nicely colored Precious Imperial Topaz which are smaller (say 4cts-5cts), this large gemstone seems to be a bargain - and well cut, clean gems of importance are difficult to find, difficult to obtain and are always increasing in price. This is also cut by a Multi-Award Winning U.S. Cutter whose work is represented in museums. With all this being said, enjoy this incredible gem below!.... |

| One has to be very lucky to encounter a Fine Quality Colored Ouro Preto IMPERIAL Topaz now. Large pieces just don't exist. Very rare to find larger crystals and typically they are far from clean and therefore, they are more mineral specimens and not for cutting gemstones. However, some larger crystals might have a section of clarity in the center and that was the case of this piece. It was purchased by a friend/associate of ours decades ago and he found a clean section that allowed him to facet this almost 20ct gem! The cutter is known as being a Multi-Award Winner, winning another prestigious award just this year from AGTA for his entry into the Cutting Edge Awards Competition. His work is also on display in a museum in Tucson. This 19.45ct Pear Shaped Imperial Topaz is entirely clean and has been precision faceted by the cutter; perfection in cutting and the polish only enhances this gem as the facets act as mirrors and reflects light on the surface while light is reflected internally! In Tucson 2024, with dealers from around the world, the owner of All That Glitters walked all the shows looking for anything equivalent in this size. Only one gemstone of 18.84ct was found; the next closest was 14.94cts. The 18.84ct (shown further below), had a lighter color. The prices were actually displayed along with these gems - our price on the All That Glitters Website is essentially the price offered to the trade for the less expensive color of the 18.84ct seen. We would expect a markup to be between 50-100% in a retail store, therefore, expect the price to be approximately $1945/ct up to perhaps as high as $2594/ct. We have a low price of Only $1297/ct on this massively large Ouro Preto Imperial Topaz which is what one could possibly expect of a wholesale/trade price if one could find a similarly colored gem of this size - and don't forget the fine expert cutting of this piece too! (ggc-24a-04) $25233 |
| This piece is an important gemstone so we wanted this certed for the trade as well as the public. Not only did we have this gem certed, we also paid far more money for the more costly certification from AGL which is their Prestige Report! |
Below is a photo obtained of a Topaz of a similar size, but the color isn't as orange as ours. This was the price offered to the trade
at the wholesale show in Tucson 2024 - in the entire show, we only saw this piece that approached the size of our big 19+ct!
Note that the price shown seems to be a decent price as smaller gems of the same color were not much less per carat...

| Certified as Purplish Red Ruby, this material is from Africa and is certed as having NO evidence of heat, which is quite rare today. The average weight of a pair is about 77pts each. Price per carat is $750, therefore an average matched pair would run about $578. Good matched pairs in Ruby are very difficult to find. This material is a nice rich red under incandescent lights, well cut, clean, NO Heat and are super all around! Photographed under fluorescent lights. (vpng-07-05a) (The wholesale price from a West Coast company, whose matched pairs are not as well cut as ours and theirs is heated, is over our currently asking price.

| A nice deep blue 3.38ct Spinel from Sri Lanka which color shifts a bit to a purple depending on the lights. This is one of those gemstones that appears dark in some lights but when under the proper lighting, the color is quite evident and will be blue to a violet/purple color. Under this fiber optic light, you can see some fingerprints which will help to identify it as natural. With 2.75x glasses when examining this for the first time and under normal lighting, the fingerprints could not be seen. It took quite a bit of negotiating to obtain this piece as all other pieces were saw that were 'similar' in color, weren't usually as pure in color and the prices at the Tucson Show (wholesale) were $650+ per carat. We can offer this at only $600/ct - so you can see why the negotiations took some time as the dealer didn't want to sell it below the price they had it listed at - the starting price was indeed at that $650/ct initially. However, I think that with the large purchases of Alexandrite, they had the chance to turn the Spinel into funds and they sold it for less than they wanted and perhaps also below cost. For gems sold at that level ($650/ct), a retail store would have to ask $1300 to $1950/ct. If you think that this gem might be for you, you can purchase it and should you change your mind for some reason, you have our generous standard return policy. (Sorry for the reflections of the serations of the tweezers - but with a high polish, the facets act as a mirror) (kdjh-25-01) $2028 You won't find this color or size in a Spinel for less as this we are selling below the current trade price IF you can find a similar gem; this color is not common and is in demand also. |

| This piece was created in the past, but never posted on the All That Glitters website, so we are correcting that now!
An exceptionally deep blue aquamarine was recut (6+ct after recutting) by one of our multi-award winning cutters (whose work is on display in the Gem/Mineral Museum in Tucson),
from an original gem in the All That Glitters inventory. One of our custom goldsmiths created this intricate pendant via CAD/CAM, specifically for this
gemstone, which is surrounded by diamonds and hangs on a chain chosen to accent the whole piece. An exquisite piece.

He had faceted some of our original Rough Tanzanite back in the 1990s. This piece weighs a nice 1.45cts and is an emerald cut just shy of 7x5mm. We have seen lighter material in Tucson 2025 with wholesale pricing of $1850/ct. The color on our office monitor shows the color to be slightly more deeply saturated - it is a neony bright mint green. Our low current pricing is only $1500/ct to the trade, the public or anyone who would like this for a limited time! (vtri-25-03) $2175 |

| Incredibly Bright Neony Lizard Green Grossular (Tsavorite Garnet) and in ROUNDS too! Rough usually doesn't allow this
shape to be cut in this species, especially in this size. We literally saw a few similar pieces in the Tucson 2025 Gem and Mineral Show
and the wholesale price was $1850/ct - expect that to double when priced on the retail level. (Can point you in the right direction to verify this
if desired) Our price on this material is $1500/ct or less!
8mm Round, 2.57ct, $1500/ct, (rckstc-25b-01a), $3855 7.5mm Round, 1.60ct, $1275/ct, (rckstc-25b-01c), $2040 7.5mm Round, 1.91ct, $1275/ct, (rckstc-25b-01b), $2435 Note that the above two gems could be used in earrings; matched gems like this should be far higher in price per carat as a matched pair is very rare. |

| A nice deep blue very lively/brilliant Aquamarine weighing 11.14ct and in a Trilliant cut. We plan on recutting this and it will end up being perhaps quite a bit smaller in weight and dimensions. If you would like to purchase this before we send it to one of our specialty cutters. (ajay-25-01) Update of of 02/05/26 - This have been recut to 9.93cts has undergone a wonderful transformation and is slightly deeper in color and far more brilliant with the new cut by a Multi-Award Winning Cutter (having won another award this year in the AGTA Cutting Edge Contest!!) He has done some wonderful work for use in the past, faceting our rough Diaspore, Ametrine, Oregon Sunstone, Tourmaline and more... We will post the newly photographed gem in the near future! |

| NATURAL Alexandrite - Great Selection - Wonderful Material - LOW Price! |
| Have noted the color changes of the following Natural Alexandrites under the noted lighting conditions:
Daylight; LED (warm); LED (cool); Fluorescent (blue-green wavelengths available); Incandescent Descriptions of the color changes for each Alexandrite below will be in the following order when described: Daylight; LED (warm); LED (cool); Fluorescent; Incandescent (Note under incandescent, the color is very difficult to actually describe) For the most part, this grouping of Natural Alexandrite is very close to each other when it comes to color change, and varies only a small bit and has been described as best as possible for each one. Using a dual LED light which has both warm and cool options, we have never seen the Deep Power Blue color in Alexandrite like this before. A beautiful and very unexpected color. With so many various light sources today, you can be sure that this material will be different colors depending on the lights and the wavelengths withing those lights! For Alexandrite, the cutting, brilliance and clarity are pretty exceptional for this Rare Gemstone. We have this material at a price that is WAY below, typically 50%, of what was available to the trade at the 2025 Tucson Gem and Mineral Show! |

Did some research on-line and as expected, this fine quality Alexandrite is a steal! Just like all the others listed here and on our Alexandrite page!... (Actually, from past experience and what we have seen out there on the market, this estimate of $11+k is on the low side. Wholesale pricing can be in this ballpark and as you approach 1ct, we have seen $23,000/ct in Tucson (2024) for a nice piece, but on the slightly dark side). |

| 505ts measuring about 2.75+" high. Super Natural Etching
and terminated Ametrine Crystal from the Anahi mine, the Mine known for producing this material.
As you can see as the crystal rotates, not only do you see citrine and amethyst, but there may be some lighter areas that might
even be clear making it a tricolor crystal. When purchased we were considering making slices, faceting stones or even
carving which would be a marvelous thing for this piece! There may be a small area that popped off because of perhaps a
weak area of the crystal near the surface or perhaps an inclusion, but it is a small glassy area and doesn't really look like a chip but it is also not etched.
Would make a wonderful collector's piece, or one could send it to Germany or utilize a US Cutter to carve a unique design utilizing the various colors of this crystal, leaving some of the natural etching on the back and or sides. (jnfl-12-01a) ONLY $675 ($1.34 per carat!!) NEW VERY LOW PRICE! |

| 40.48ct Marquise Shaped Ukrainian Natural Topaz - Orange to Smoky Orange depending on available lights. We were extremely lucky to find
two pieces of Ukrainian Brandy to Smoky Orange to Orange Colored Topaz Rough which one of our Specialty Cutters faceted and created this unique Marquise shape - not
far from an oval and at first glance it does indeed look like an oval. This is a large gemstone for an Orangy Topaz. This material is known as coming from this one area of the world
and this Topaz is known to change color to blue while the crystal is growing,
and therefore, you will frequently see this material faceted in emerald cuts where part of the gemstone is a very light
blue and the other half is this unique pleasing color. These Bicolored Topaz tends to be in large sizes as the blue is very light so the larger/deeper the stone, the more noticeable the blue.
We encountered this material being sold by a Ukrainian and just had to have both pieces that were available - one of the reasons was that there was an example of this color of Topaz faceted and we thought
the color, the size and polish were all attractive and definitely desired to have our cutters work their magic on this available rough. We have never had this color of Topaz in our inventory during our numerous decades in business.
This was a must have! Also, at this time, supporting those in the Ukraine was also a consideration. There are some very small inclusions (pinpoints) but they are so small and the stone is exceptionally large
and therefore really has no affect on the brillance, the gem or the price! (mnrlks-24-01b) $4048
hough this material did not originate in another famous deposit of orangy Topaz (Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais, Brasil), it also doesn’t have the price of over $1000/ct wholesale associated with a fine orange gem weighing about 19ct from this locality, which we were seeking and did indeed find only one within all the thousands of dealers at the Tucson Show in 2024. We got a great yield/return from the rough to this faceted gem – this color shifting gem is selling at only $100/ct, which is about what the trade price was in Tucson as seen with the one dealer we encountered that had this very special material available in a few pieces of rough as well as one faceted gem. Yes, we saw the faceted gem and had to buy two pieces of rough to have our specialty cutter perform magic and create the two faceted gemstones we currently have and are offering! (We thought the color was unique and beautiful and this material takes a high polish. Just had to have this material in the All That Glitters Collection!) |
| GIA recently published an article of this very Topaz location in the Ukraine. You can see the color of the above Topaz in some of the photos showing the bicolor nature of this
deposit, being a light blue and typically this light orangy sherry color. In the case of our gemstones, the rough was all orangy vs. having blue, and you can see that the saturation of
our gemstones is superior to the light versions shown in the photos. Read the GIA article below and View the Photos - as noted, this material is in demand and this color is not commonly seen -
in fact, there was only one dealer that had the rough and a faceted gemstone of this color available in all of those dealers we visited
at the Tucson Show in 2024.

| Below is a screen grab of an an orangy topaz sold at auction in 2024 by a well-knmown aucton house, where we have also sold a number of our items, where they actually sold for far more than the original asking price on our website!. This is described as having a GIA cert, with the following description: "Stone is clean and displays very minor nicks on pavilion and minute surface reaching inclusion on girdle." This sold for $625 - The commission paid by the successful high bidder, was 30%, so the gemstone cost $813 in total, not including shipping/insurance. The total price per carat would be approximately $165/ct when one calculates the total paid and the carat weight. Since this is a smaller gemstone, a larger gemstone of this same species would be far more per carat due to rarity of finding the rough and is a general rule of thumb for natural and less common gemstone species. We can guarantee that the cutting of the All That Glitters gemstone above is far superior to this one sold at auction and we believe the color of our gemstone is better; it also possess an interesting color shift depending on light/wavelengths available. That being said, we have this at about 50% less than this auction item! As always, we try to purchase as close to the source of the rough as possible and our goal is to be able to offer gemstones at below wholesale prices, at wholesale prices or between wholesale and retail prices for those difficult to obtain pieces where we sometimes have to pay more to obtain what we desire. Another All That Glitters Bargain! |

| 48.20ct Lively Ukrainian Topaz (Oval) - Orange to Smoky Orange depending on lighting. Very similar to the above gemstone in all ways - just a few carats larger and in an oval shape.

| Wanted to share another of our rarities that have been stashed away for decades that we encountered in the past that we just had to have for inventory! These were available through one dealer and only for a short timeframe. Over all these decades we have never seen this material again. At the time, he had a nubmer of pieces, and as always, All That Glitters chose the most interesting and aesthetically pleasing of the entire group. We only had 3 and we recently sold one - leaving only 2 available.... | ||||
| This is Incredibly Rare and One-of-a-Kind Naturally Forming Fossilized material. Found in Indonesia in very limited quantities, it has been identified as being either Bamboo or Reeds (via lab anaylysis), which became fossilized with layers of colorful Agate. When sliced, you can see the original organic living shape of what has become Agatized over millions of years. We have heard they are no longer finding this material, and that it was being found in a volcanic area in Indonesia. | ||||

| This is a unique piece with lots of history, including recent history of the past month! This bowl/serving dish is composed of numerous fossils found in Morocco. It measures just over 4" across and is unique in that you have a nice play of various colors vs. the standard consistent color of these typicall fossils, with this one shows a nice reddish color possibly due to iron. The fossils consist of Orthoceras as well as an Ammonite which is actually raised above the surface on the edge, creating a more unique and interesting design. This can be used as any kind of holder, perhaps a small tray for cheese/crackers, olives, nuts or even an ash tray. (Note - Trilobites and Orthoceras are the most common fossils found in Morocco. Other fossils that can be found in Morocco include ammonites, dinosaurs, coral, shark teeth, goniatites, crinoids, and brachiopods.) During travel in Morocco recently, an eye was kept open for minerals, fossils and amethyst. This particular item came from a 20 year old young man (possibly married already as he wore a gold band on a finger) and was responsible for overseeing dromedaries (one hump camels) in part of the Sahara Desert. In showing his wares that he had for sale, this item caught our attention because of the nice fossils and unique coloring not often seen in these fossils. There was also the desire to make a purchase to help him out, as well as his family, so we gladly made this purchase. This item is only $40 and INCLUDES Shipping and Full Insurance. (PF-24-01) |

| Large 3.41ct Neony Tsavorite Garnet Oval - bright lizard green. Has an inclusion (and some fine ones scattered throughout) which can be seen under power and when flipped over, but very difficult to see unless the lights are just right and the angle allows it to be seen. With 2.75x glasses, I personally cannot see it. Most might consider this to be eye clean. A brilliant/sparkly gemstone. Video is perhaps just a tad more green, as there is some yellow highlights - but this would bought right and being sold at a great price for what this is. An 8+ct deeper green (chrome) was sold to the trade a few years back for $120,000; anything in large sizes like this of good green are very high in the trade and far higher when it hits the retail market.

| A Fossilized Wasp or Bee in Amber from the Dominican Republic - approximately 30-40 Million Years Old. This is a well known and sought after locality where some of the amber found contains insects or vegetation. Nicely preserved with lots of detail. We have done well with similar items at auction, typically selling for 2 to 4 times the listed price on the All That Glitters website. Clicking on any image will produce a large image of this piece and also displayed here is one of our previously sold fossilized ambers with a wasp, which sold for $3000. We do have some brass stands left and if you wish to display this specimen, the stands are $65 - it was difficult to find/obtain these stands years ago and not sure if they can even be had currently. As you can see, the wasp sold at auction did have a stand and it helps to display the piece when you are not looking at the specimen with a loupe, magnifying glass or microscope. One can spend time viewing this specimen in detail and it is amazing to look at an insect that was alive millions of years before and it still looks as it did at that time! (ai-23-02) $750 |

This is a well known and sought after locality where some of the amber found contains insects or vegetation. Nicely preserved with lots of detail - compound eyes are very clear as well as other details. There are other insects in this piece too, some look to be mosquitos (mating?) and there seems to be something else also. We have done well with similar items at auction, typically selling for 2 to 4 times the listed price on the All That Glitters website.

Prices have climbed dramatically over the past few years on this material, and still extremeley difficult to obtain good material as most is included, overly dark and the color change isn't worth noting. The blue green on this one is really strong and it will go to a purple color. Small but nice considering what is on the market and avaialble, but that can always be said of this material!

| We were fortunate to find such a nice precision faceted 6.53ct Natural Imperial Pink Topaz (Certed!) originally mined in Ouro Preto decades ago. The cutter of this piece is a Well-Known Multi-Award Winning Cutter whose work is in museums. Pink Topaz of any size is quite rare and this is considered to be a large one! Clean, properly faceted, high polish all mean that this is an important gemstone! (ggc-24b-01) $16,325 This is only $2500/ct, which was the price of a 5.02ct Pink Topaz in one of the main Tucson Gem and Mineral Shows in 2018, and that was in 2018 and for a smaller gemstone!!!) |

 |
| A 15.83ct Pear Shaped Opal, showing lots of Play of Color, another great example. Upon request, we do have a video availalbe, though it is not the high quality videos we attempt to create. (psp-24-01) $2375 |

| A Very Unique Natural Tricolor Quartz carved/faceted by a Multi-Award Winning Cutter, who recently one in a category receiving an award in 2024 from AGTA in their Cutting Edge Annual Competition. This exact material has also won praise when the cutter made a whole suite of these unique pieces, creating a necklace - this prestigious piece resides in the Alfie Norville Gem & Mineral Museum in Tucson. Should you purchase one of these rare pieces, you can visit the related gems and view the necklace in the museum. Note that this unique quartz, growing in zones of deep glowing amethyst, changing to clear and then back to Amethyst, is found in a deposit in Morocco and is not common found in general, not to mention one needs transparent and clean material in order to faceted gems. We love this material and managed to talk our associate into releasing the last few of the pieces he had. This gem weighs 10.75cts and the cutter had a price of $600/ct on this. We can offer this piece at $200/ct. Save $4300 off the retail price that the cuttter/designer was originally asking! Original container with cutters info/price is available and will be used to house this gemstone in transit to its new home in the future! This material from Morocco is known to frequently have hematite legs (inclusions) - any in this gemstone will help to identify this gem species and perhaps even the locality - there is nothing that is readily visible to the nake eye or distracting.(ggc-24a-03) $2150 |

| A 3.43ct Imperial Topaz from Ouro Preto. The price of fine Topaz has gone up over the past few years. It is difficult to find quality rough. This is a real beauty having the hint of peach, some pink and orange body color, and it is a nice shape for a ring or pendant. (bzmgm-24-01) $5145 |

| A Stunning Glowing Blue Sapphire weighing 2.50cts, Certed by GIA, surrounded with 1cts of Diamonds, set in a Platinum ring (estate piece). Note that the carat weight of the Sapphire as well as the diamonds and the fact that it is Platinum is stamped on the inside of the band. Approx ring size is 6-1/4; can be resized to fit as desired (within reason). (rs-24b-01) $11,500 (Calculations show this is at about 70% off of the retail estimate - therefore a savings of 30%) |

| Photos cannot do this Pink Sapphire/Ring Any Justice! The color is a Glowing Magenta Pink and lively, flanked by two Natural Diamonds. The Sapphire is a whopping 5.33cts and is certed by AGL. The Diamonds are SI1/G-H in color and weigh 1ct in total weight, so therefore, 0.50cts each. Set in a newly designed custom 18kt Yellow Gold Ring - approx ring size is 8 and should be easily sizeable. Pink Sapphires of this size are in demand and have increased in price over the past few years. The total estimated retail price for this is approximately $40k. When we saw this large Sapphire, we knew that the designer must have had this for some time as the price didn't truly reflect pricing of the center Sapphire at todays prices; perhaps it had been hidden away in inventory/the vault for some time. So here is another steal from All That Glitters. Calculations based on the current pricing of a 4-5ct Pink Sapphire at the 2024 Tucson Gem and Mineral Show indicate that the retail price of just the Sapphire is slightly over $35k. (Calculations show a savings of about 30% off of the estimated retail.) Photos cannot capture the real beauty or true color of this piece. This is a Must See (and a Must Wear!) (dei-24-01) $28,000 |
| AGTA (American Gem Trade Association) published an entire article about Pink Sapphire earlier this year, and the
eye catching first few lines were: "Pink sapphires have garnered significant market traction worldwide, particularly among luxury brands expanding their offerings of precious colored gemstone jewelry."
Expect prices to keep increasing in this color, especially for larger sized gems - which the center Sapphire in this ring certainly is! |

| A large 1.80ct Natural Alexandrite Oval set with 1.23cts of Diamonds in a Platinum Ring (estate piece; approx ring size 5 - sizeable). Weight of the Alexandrite, the diamonds
and metal type are all stamped on the inside of the band. Ideally, we would like to see this recut slightly to improve the brilliance and
perhaps improve the saturation, but there is not sufficient material in the pavilion to keep the outer dimensions so it would continue to fit into the existing opening
in this ring. Natural Alexandrite has gone up dramatically in the past few years. What is on the market typically
hasn't been thrilling us due to size, being overly dark, poor cutting, clarity issues and especailly pricing. Regardless of how poor we feel
Natural Alexandrite faceted gems might be out there, they continue to sell and at high prices.
As always, one needs the right wavelengths in order to view color changes/shifts in gems and not all are dramatic changes. This does go form a variation of green to a purply color. While visiting with a goldsmith, we showed him this ring and between the diffused daylight from a window and his other lights, he was impressed with the color change. We have a price on this entire ring where in the current market you couldn't purchase just the Alexandrite. It is also a plus that it is set in a Platinum ring and has essentially one and a quarter carats worth of diamonds! Just to set this piece with all the gemstones is a costly undertaking. In one ring that we created in the past, we had lots of colored accent gems as well as diamonds, and it cost over $1000 wholesale to set all the gems. Alexandrite, Ruby and a few other gemstones can be quite a challenge to obtain accurate color renditions regardless of the device being used. Unfortunately, though we sometimes believe we have obtained a good shot with accurate color, when the photo is transferred to another device or even uploaded to a website, the color can be quite different from what the eye sees or the original photo. With websites, some of this is based on the codecs that different websites use, and with devices, it is frequently related to what people has selected for color display, etc. Due to the wides range of wholesale prices and qualities of Natural Alexandrite seen in the trade currently, it is difficult to determine the estimated retail price for this piece; however, at this price, the Platinum Ring and Diamonds might be a freebie as the center Alexandrite might be selling elsewhere at the price for this whole ring and from what we have recently seen at the 2024 Tucson Gem and Mineral Show, some wholesale Alexandrite of this size is selling at the price of what we are offering this ring at...pricing of Natural Alexandrite is across the board on the wholesale and retail level currently and is not expected to decrease, which has been noted in numerous trade articles over the past two years regarding the prices of fine colored gemstones.

| *** Two Indredibly Dark Aquamarines ***
Most in the trade would think these are blue Topaz or Zircon, Possibly Tourmaline. Selling at the approx wholesale prices seen in Tucson! |

 |
 |
| A - 1.82ct Trilliant Deep Blue Aquamarine (gp-24-01) $2184 | |
| B - A large pear shape weighing 3.97ct - origin is Madagascar, which has some incredibly deeply colored Aquamarines, including a cushion shape that we have in inventory that is so deep blue, most don't recognize it as Aqua and might be one of the most saturated blues seen in the trade (and without grey as a modifier!) Photo doesn't do this gem justice - the color is actually more saturated in person than the photo shows...(prigem-24-01) $5955 | |

| A - Neony Pink Oval Sapphire weighing 1.53cts, from Madagascar and Unheated. Photo does not capture the brilliance or true color. (egl-24-01) $3825 | |

| This 3.12ct Round Tourmaline hails from a very important source in Blue Green Tourmaline - Namibia. This country has produced some incredible colors and gems, including this one. The photo does not do this justice - the color is essentially a deep green with hints/flashes of blue. Another must see KILLER gem in person in order to truly appreciate! (agc-24-01) $3120 |

| GIA CERTED/Laser Inscribed 1.06ct Diamond, VVS2/J - Estate Engagement/Wedding Band |
| An Estate Piece consisting of both the Engagement Ring and Wedding Band.
One doesn't have to keep these pieces intact - the important gemstone in these two pieces is the Center Diamond -
Remove that and put into any ring you wish and use the other diamonds as accents.
The Center Diamond is VVS2 in clarity, so extremely HIGH on the Grading Scale. The color is J which is still white but showing some color. It is GIA Certed - so you have no issues knowing the Clarity, Color, Dimensions, Weight, Cutting, Polish and other nfo. You know that the Diamond is the one in the cert, as on the girdle it has the GIA Cert Number etched by laser! 14 karat white gold engagement ring, set with a cushion modified brilliant cut diamond , weighing 1.06ct, of J color and VVS2 clarity, that is laser inscribed and accompanied by a GIA certification #2155377248. Recent measurements estimate the center diamond is accented by approx. 0.74 ct. total weight of round brilliant cut diamonds, of SI clarity or better and of white color. Accompanied by a 10 karat white gold wedding band that is set with more round brilliant cut diamonds - these diamonds are numerous but insignificant in size compared to those around the main diamond in the engagement ring and is a nice match and enhances the engagement ring; nice to have the wedding band available too! Ring size 4 approx (will remeasure if necessary upon request, but can be sized if desired or dis-assembled to create another ring/band if desired - the important gemstone is the 1.06ct GIA Certed Diamond! Note that since we have dealt with colored gemstones for over 45 years now, and sometimes deal with diamonds (we mandate GIA Certs for all diamonds we sell), we are unfamiliar with retail pricing in either colored gems or diamonds - so did a google search for Retail price of GIA Certed Modified Cushion Brilliant, J Color, VVS2 clarity. We came up with the info via AI and we did a screen grab. Regardless of how many times we did this, we could only get a quote on a VS2 clarity and not a VVS2 clarity which is two full steps higher in clarity. The high end for retail for just the diamond would therefore probably be in the $6700 ballpark as estimated from what was seen on line; that is for the diamond only, not the gold engagement and wedding band or small diamond melee. We have what we feel is a good price for this piece - which does not only include the major center diamond, but the two gold settings and associated diamonds. (wsan-23-01A) ONLY $4,100 |
