Color Change Diaspore is an unusual gemstone in a number of ways. Its most obvious singularity is its ability to change color when moved from one light source to another.
In addition, it is really only mined in one place on earth - the Anatolian Mountains of central Turkey - and it has been marketed under three distinct names - Zultanite, Csarite and most recently Color Change Diaspora.
Diaspore's incredible color change is a wonder to behold. Under natural daylight or in fluorescent lighting, most Diaspore gemstones look light yellow, golden yellow or even a straw color. However as soon as the gemstone is moved into incandescent lighting or, even better, candlelight, it changes to a pinkish-orange or sunset-like color.
The unique display produced by Diaspore is caused by the presence of magnesium to create the daytime yellow colors and chromium to stimulate the changes under candlelight.

Color Change Diaspore is an aluminum oxide hydroxide mineral which is found in various parts of the world and is known rather confusingly by several names including empholite, kayserite and tantarite. It was discovered way back in 1801 but only used as a gemstone since the 1970s.
From 2006 Color Change Diaspore has been mined as a gemstone in Turkey initially using one of these trade names:
But more recently just as simply Diaspore or Color Change Diaspore.
There is a combination of factors which determine the price for Diaspore. As usual the color is very important and with this gemstone there is the added complication of two or three different colors - the yellow or green base color, the orange or raspberry color change plus the contrast between the two colors.
The ideal stone will have a golden yellow color in daylight then a dramatic change to raspberry red in candlelight.
Color Change Diaspore in fine enough quality to be used as a gemstone is only found in Mugla, high in the Anatolian Mountains of Central Turkey.
Color Change Diaspore is rated at 6.5 - 7 on Mohs hardness scale which makes it comparable to Peridot and Tanzanite. It can be used in most types of jewelry items but daily wear pieces or rings may need extra care.
One of the most fascinating characteristics of certain gemstones is their ability to change colors under different lighting conditions. Color change diaspore stands out in this category, captivating enthusiasts and collectors alike. Its enchanting shift from a light-green hue under daylight to a pinkish-brown or champagne color under incandescent light makes it a visual marvel in the world of gemstones.
Diaspore's claim to fame is its phenomenal color change property. This unique characteristic is not just a mere play of light; it's an interplay of the gemstone's internal structure and various light sources.
For those looking to add a touch of nature's wonder to their collection, to buy color change diaspores is an excellent choice. Beyond its aesthetic allure, it's a gemstone that embodies the mysteries of the natural world. Whether set in a ring, pendant, or earrings, this gemstone promises to be a conversation starter, adding a touch of elegance and intrigue to any ensemble.

The website is well organized and works fast forward and back. Plenty of filters. Each gem is described in detail and you receive the one pictured. Gem material info and sources available. I would like to see more specifics on sources besides country- at least region or state and in the US with Turquiose which mine. Thanks!

over the experience was similar to other sites i have used. The only real note I have is the checkout experience was tedious and discriminatory, i wouldn't accept visa gift cards, which not only have guaranteed funds but help protect from misuse of personal information, but would not accept my visa b/c it is a prepaid card. I don't have bank account and I have been using the prepaid card for years without issue so this was disappointing to me. I feel safer using reputable gem sites rather than amazon or ebay (I have been sold fake gems with fake certs on both), but not being able to use my own valid legitimate funds and having to find a friend to buy for me b/c I use a non-bank card like 40% of the country is insulting.

I placed order#384714 based on the picture on your website and the stone came in much darker. I'm sure it's the same stone i ordered but your lighting made it seem a lighter blue. I was trying to match a stone for a customer and based on the picture it would have been close enough but the stone in person is a mile off.

I have actually done business with them before and was quite satisfied with them then.My Mother collected turtle items and when I saw the Mother of Pearl turtle...I just thought of her and decided to buy it. It's even tinier than I thought, but so adorable!The gemstones I bought are for jewelry for my daughter's birthday.

I had a great time searching all the lovely stones. This is my first precious loose stone purchase for my own work. I chose sapphire, and found some lovely briolettes. I wanted 3, but this set of 4 was perfect. Everything was quick and easy, and I'm excited.
