The schiller effect - caused by copper platelets suspended within the feldspar - creates a shifting, metallic glow that moves with the light, and in peach material this reads as a warm, almost organic luminosity that photographs well in finished pieces. Feldspar has perfect cleavage in two directions, so this briolette form rewards careful setting and handling; avoid ultrasonic cleaners and hard knocks during fabrication.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gem Enthusiast","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47893131952315,"sku":"OSB102","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0639\/8214\/1627\/files\/oregon-sunstone-briolette-13x85mm-63ct-sun-crystal-oregon-usa-osb102-9107725.jpg?v=1780353732","url":"https:\/\/gementhusiast.shop\/products\/oregon-sunstone-briolette-13x85mm-42330","provider":"Gem Enthusiast","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
