Oregon sunstone, reduced from its scientific name—copper-bearing labradorite feldspar—to a nickname that aptly describes its luminescent quality, is mined in Oregon’s easternmost high desert and also happens to be our official state gem. Aside from its distinguished position in our state registry, sunstones also happen to make gorgeous engagement rocks, varying in color from translucent to yellow to shades of red and green. When it comes to putting a ring on it, the combination of uniqueness and state sentimentality make these stunners perfect candidates for Oregon brides looking for something different but still elegant. We’ve searched high and low for the prettiest sunstone rings—keep scrolling to take a look!
