Diaspore, also known as Zultanite, is a relatively new addition to the world of gemstones. Despite its recent discovery, this gemstone has quickly become a popular choice among jewelry enthusiasts. Its unique color-changing properties, durability, and affordability make it a versatile and desirable option for many different types of jewelry.
Properties and Composition
Diaspore is a mineral that belongs to the oxide mineral class and is composed of aluminum oxide. Its unique color-changing properties are caused by the presence of chromium and iron impurities in its structure. The gemstone typically appears as a yellowish-green color in natural light, but can change to a pinkish-red or even a brownish-yellow color under different lighting conditions.
Diaspore is typically found in small sizes, with larger gems being quite rare. The gemstone is found mainly in Turkey, where it was first discovered in the 1980s. It is also found in small quantities in other countries such as Greece, Russia, and China.
Durability and Care
Diaspore is a relatively durable gemstone, with a hardness of 6.5-7 on the Mohs scale. This makes it suitable for daily wear in most types of jewelry. It is also resistant to scratches and chips, making it a great option for rings and other pieces that are subject to more wear and tear.
To care for your Diaspore jewelry, it is recommended to clean it with warm, soapy water and a soft brush. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and steam cleaners, as these can damage the gemstone. It is also important to store Diaspore jewelry separately from other gemstones to prevent scratches.
Design and Applications
Diaspore's unique color-changing properties make it a great option for a variety of jewelry designs. It is popular in engagement rings, earrings, pendants, and bracelets. Its versatility in color also allows it to pair well with other gemstones such as diamonds, sapphires, and emeralds.
In addition to its use in traditional jewelry, Diaspore is also a popular choice for fashion jewelry and costume jewelry. Its affordability and durability make it a great option for trendy and affordable pieces.
In summary, Diaspore is a versatile and desirable gemstone for jewelry enthusiasts. Its unique color-changing properties, durability, and affordability make it a great option for a variety of jewelry designs and applications.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.
When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.
