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.

In keeping with All That Glitters' Unique and Rare Gems, here is another colored version of Zoisite - a Green Zoisite; some call this Green Tanzanite or simply Fancy Tanzanite, as it is the same mineral as Tanzanite, but can be found in various colors. This interesting freeform weighs 4.27cts and one can almost expect that a larger piece of rough may be faceted in such a way to utilize this rare material. Faceted in the U.S. by a Multi-Award Winning Cutter who is represented in museums. (ggc-20a-03) Contact Us for Pricing. (The original cutter was seeking about $8,000 for this unique beauty!) |

24.97ct Tanzanite with Cert |

This large Tanzanite has rarely seen the light of day since it's purchase back in about 1990.
It has a certificate from Guild Laboratories in Los Angeles, CA, along with a photograph and with a
retail price of $27,000 - that was back in 1991! Charles Carmona, owner of Guild Labs, is a well known
respected Appraiser/Gemologist - who has appeared on The Peoples Court and has worked in various developing countries -
I believe invited by The World Bank. As noted by Charles during the appraisal process, there is a small needle
deep in the stone only seen under power - this indicates that it most likely would not have been heated, as most
Tanzanites come out of the ground as brown color and have to be heated to obtaine the blue/purple that those expect.
Some rough we have seen is indeed blue when mined (as well as a few exceptional pieces that might be fancy colors) -
so most likely this large gemstone did not require heating as the coefficient of expansion of the needle most likely
would have caused the needle to expand and crack the rough/gemstone. Having this needle pressent is a plus.
The very fine larger pieces are becoming quite scarce and prices have been going up - but Tanzanites are one of those gemstones that is known to fluctuate depending on what is being found, though supply is limited; though this mineral can be found in a few other countries, the fine color such as this one or even just a good blue/purple, purple blue, is just not found elsewhere. No photos can do this item ANY justice! The color glows with life similar to a Kashmir Sapphire. Other lights will show the color as having purple highlights. We have included a number of various photos under various lights, showing it more blue, more purple and even purple blue. The video was shot with lights where you can see more people. This would make a killer pendant or perhaps even a pearl enhancer - if being customer designed, one could design a piece that could be a pendant, a pearl ehancer as well as a pin! Some people might even consider it for a ring - it is a large gemstone but for the right person, this could be worn as a ring! Appraised back in 1990 at $27,500, perhaps we could have sold it then, but we put it into the vault since we were not ready to sell this beauty yet. The prices back then and the uncertainly of the deposit, made it one of those gemstones to place aside for the time being. The future of the Tanzanite deposit is still uncertain, but it is still being worked, material is sporadic, but one thing is for certain, the deposit is LIMITED and in time will be worked out and Tanzanite as we know it will be a rare commoditiy - no longer being actively mined, but will have to be purchased on a different level/market. We have inclusded a screen grab of another large Tanzanite seen in the past few years for sale as a comparison. This 24.97ct Tanzanite is sold with the original cert, as well as the case it has been store in all these years. Video was shot under lights with more purple available in the wavelengths.

Very Large 10.72ct Cushion Cut Neon Paraiba Blue Apatite. It truly has that Paraiba Blue color, and can be seen from 30 feet away with no problem! An incredible piece and the body color is that wonderful color that you see at the bottom of the gemstone in the above photo. Think of a bright neon Caribbean Ocean if you are unfamiliar with Paraiba Tourmaline. This has a checkerboard top, which provides flashes off the highly polished surface when any movement is encountered. The photo does not do this gem justice, but like Ruby and other gemstones, we sometimes cannot capture accurate color. This will sell to the first person who has the opportunity to see this in person. There is only one other gemstone that can look like Paraiba Tourmaline, and that are some very special rare pieces of Apatite - such as this one... (ucsc-10-02) Approx: 15.3x11.3x9.0mm.

With Alexandrite and a few other gemstones, especially color shifting or color changing gemstones, it may be difficult to obtain two accurate photos of the color shift/change. This is the case with these two particular Alexandrites. The purple is easily obtained with a camera, but the blue green/teal is much more difficult. You have our description of the color as well as the color description defined under the lights that GIA uses for Gem ID. We are in agreement that we see a blue green or teal going to a purple - no other modifiers noted. |

Natural Alexandrite, changing from a Greenish to a Purplish, large 0.88ct Oval. Very well priced when compared to trade prices seen in Tucson 2023. This has inclusions as this material frequently has, but the size, the color change and price attracted us as everyone wants a Natural Alexandrite and this is below the prices that are out there for this material - and prices have increased dramatically over the past several years. This has been certed by GIA, Natural Alexadrite, chaning from a Bluish Green to Grey-Purple - which we feel is accurate depending on the lights. The green on this stone varies depending on the wavelengths/lights available, as we have seen it a forest green to vivid green to bluish green; this can be a really fine green for Alexandrite depending on where it is viewed!. The color rendition on the cert (pdf) is unimpressive and not that accurate as to what we see, but this is usually the case on GIA Certs - color rendition is off and we frequently disagree with the actual color description - but again, color is all light dependent and the wavelenghts available! We have sent gemstones/certs back to GIA at times for them to look at the color again, and have received them back with a different color description and a much better photo representing the gem in the report/cert...

While pulling Sapphires for a Diamond Dealer, viewing the cert, the information in our database, calculating our cost, it was determined that one sapphire had an incorrect price. We have corrected this and the cost of the sapphire below is now $2000 below what it had originally been priced at - which was $7332. We would have caught this at the point of sale in the future and would have corrected it then, and the customer would have been even more happy to have this gemstone, but now this becomes more attractive and affordable for our customers considering this gemstone! Enjoy the Savings!... |

Unheated Pink with possibly hints of Orange - 1.41ct Oval Sapphire. (egaj-15-76) - SOLD! View Cert |

GIA Certed Sapphire, 1.87ct, in a shape seldom seen in Sapphire, a nice slightly elongated emerald cut. Very vivid Pinkish Red or Reddish Pink and should cert in Europe/Asia as a Ruby, but border line here in the US. GIA states it is a Sapphire of Purplish Pink, as noted we see more red perhaps than purple, but as in all gemstones, color is based on the light viewed under! As with many certs, the photo doesn't do the color justice and does show more purple in that photo. Also, the pdf maybe show a photo differently in color depending on the the device and codecs for color being used. All That Glitters knows the cutter who purchased the rough, faceted it and then heated it at low temp to remove a dot of blue that was present. (blgj-23-01) $6,171 |

Wanted to Share this Most Recent Ring Created for a Customer
Here is an Example of a Ring Created with our Lab Grown Alexandrite! This piece uses our Russian Grown Alex purchased and faceted by All That Glitters decades ago.

Our customer designed this ring using the All That Glitters Jewelers Showcase. He used All That Glitters Lab Grown Alexandrite - a 5x7mm oval center flanked by a 4mm round on each side; the Alexandrites were faceted from our rough purchased decades ago from associates in Russia. He chose 14kt white gold and there are 16 Full Cut VS/F+ Diamonds in various areas of the ring, as well as an inscription inside the band. Using All That Glitters for the gemstones as well as ring creation, this person saved approximately $1,380 off the retail price! |
Sharing a Recently Designed Custom Diamond Ring Created for One of Our Long Time Customers! |

We saw a really brilliant beautiful 1.15ct, SI1 Round Brilliant Champagne Diamond (color of actual diamond is
much lighter in person vs. the photo) with lots of Dispersion for sale by a dealer we have done business with for about 40 years.
We called our customer to see if there was interest, because this piece was quite a sparkler and at a very good price.
The customer purchased it and then designed the ring using the All That Glitters Jewelers Showcase and in about two weeks, had the finished ring in hand!
She chose 14kt Yellow Gold with 42 Diamonds (0.61cts) of F+ Color, VS Clarity - Lab Grown. In Tucson 2023, there was lots
of talk about Lab Grown Diamonds and large ones were available. The technology is there now to create large, very clean and highly
white Diamonds; this was not the case initially. The prices are really wonderful too. As noted in recently trade articles, these Lab Created Diamonds are hot,
affordable and many people are choosing to use them for center gems, engagement rings, accent stones, etc. In fact,
we are working on an engagement ring for a new customer and he has selected the Lab Grown Diamonds also vs. natural for his
ring - again, using the All That Glitters Jewelers Showcase. For those who are designing a ring and using our
Jewelers Showcase link, your price will be approximately 25-30% below (perhaps more) than the retail price shown.

Just off the All That Glitters dop, a Honey Zircon (Rich Amber, Honey or Orange color), faceted from rough recently purchased. Have been cuttting this beauty for just about a month!.. Measures approximately 10.5mm - a squarish cushion with incredible sparkle/brililance. The faceting design is by Marco Voltolini and is called Mr. Sparkles - and one can see why! Zircon rough has increased over the past year plus so the faceted gems are increasing in priced. A Wonderful, Brilliant/Sparkly Gemstone, faceted in the U.S. and Well-Priced! (jeg-23-01) SOLD! |
Chrome Sphene - Something Not Commonly Seen on the Market! |

Chrome Sphene, 1.38ct, Round, deep green, brilliant and best of all, Incredible Dispersion as shown in the right hand photo above. Very difficult to obtain a good photo showing the accurate color and beauty, but under the right lights, the Fire/Dispersion seen is more than Diamond! (Yes, a physical character of this material, but this color green is not common in this material. Larger size pieces that are clean are not common and are quiet costly per carat. (ik-23-0) SOLD! |
We also have a slightly larger round, similar in all ways to the above Sphene, weighing 1.47ct. We couldn't obtain decent photos, and the ones of the 1.38ct Sphene we were also unhappy with, but this 1.47ct Round is also available! (ik-23-10) SOLD! |

In all these decades in the gem trade, we have only chosen a few Morganites - the past ones have typically been trililants, or sort of a beige color. Obtaining a pure pink or orange is quite rare, never mind the depth of color. We saw this particular 5.24ct Cushion Cut Morganite and had to add it to the All That Glitters Collection/Inventory. The size is nice, has good saturation/tone for a wearable gemstone, clean, well cut, great polish and most importantly, a more pure color compared to others of the past or frequently seen on the market. The color seems to shift depending on lights - sort of a light orange and sometimes seems to be a light pink. This is the only Morganite in inventory and we don't anticipate finding anything similar in the future. (ik-23-07) SOLD! |

This is something unusual for finer quality colored gemstones - we found a small parcel of
three nicely faceted bright, eye clean Tsavorites and can offer them at a really goood price considering
the trade prices seen at the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show in 2023. Tsavorites and Mint Merelani Garnet,
(Green Grossular - lighter than Tsavorite), are selling at MUCH higher prices than previous years.
