“O beautiful, for spacious skies…”
-America the Beautiful
Although there are a number of precious gemstones that can be found within our beautiful country, one of these lesser known gems is the American Fire Opal. Many people are familiar with the variety of Fire Opal from Mexico, but less widely known is the deposit of Fire Opal found in Oregon, USA. Coming in many fiery colors ranging from peach, yellow, honey, orange and red- to chocolate, cream and white - American Fire Opal is a beautiful gem relatively new to the public. Unlike other types of opal that are coveted for their multi-colored flashes, the Fire Opal is appreciated for its sizzling varieties of deep, rich body-color.
Here at AP Colored Stones, we are thrilled to feature Mark Oros’ magnificent 18.6 ct American Fire Opal, “Step Star.” There are few gems in our gallery that make me feel as patriotic as this beautiful jewel. With excellent clarity and a soft shimmering translucence, as well as a striking marigold hue, this unique stone makes me proud to be an American! Inspired by his daughter, Mark has cut this completely untreated stone into a unique, round step-cut design showcasing a star in the center when looking straight down on it.
This stone provides the perfect introduction for those not yet familiar with the American variety of this stunning gem. Don’t miss the opportunity to take home this phenomenal stone today!
