Oregon, however, is the only locality where the gemstone’s color is created by the presence of copper within the crystal structure. This produces a distinctive range of warm hues unique to the region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"\u003eMany Oregon sunstones also display a phenomenon known as copper schiller, or aventurescence. Fine copper platelets suspended within the stone create flashes of metallic sparkle that seem to shimmer within the gem when it moves in the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE LAPIDARY ARTIST\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSteve Walters is widely regarded as one of the most influential American gemstone carvers of the modern era.
