A note on the stones:
Oregon is the only place in the world where sunstone is mined commercially with copper inclusions inside the crystal — every other sunstone deposit on earth contains hematite or goethite instead. That copper is what gives Oregon sunstone its specific warm glow, and sometimes a metallic shimmer (called "schiller") that catches light unlike any other gem. It's the official state gemstone of Oregon, mined by small-scale operations in the high desert near Plush, Lake County.
Peach is one of the classic Oregon sunstone colours — warm, soft, and entirely natural. A matched pair at this size and colour is uncommon, and naturally suited to earrings, or split into a pendant + ring as a coordinated set.
