Danburite
Date - Pricing as of April 2008
Color: Colorless or nearly so. Some times pale pink or yellow.Note: Generally I do not agree with lowering the price of a faceted stone as it gets larger. But in the case of Danburite. I some times do lower the per/carat cost as a gemstone becomes larger to help off set the difference in cost and the labor. In other words the cost of light faceting material is inexpensive and as a stone gets larger the cost of the gemstone can be lowered to make the purchase price more reasonable and fair.
Colorless (almost colorless to 15% tone)
Comments - This material is fairly common and there is a good market for clean faceted stones. In particular larger stones cut in interesting designs sell well.
Pricing - So I generally price this material like I would a pale colored beryl $38/ct to $125/ct and a minimum of $150 for a small stone to cover the labor.Special - As we all know as cutters some times a stone just comes out "special" for what ever reason. On these kinds of stones I basically price how ever I feel like. Because this stone comes under the "special" category I often do not care if I sell the stone or not. So I usually price it high enough that if I do sell it, I get a very good price. Enough to make me say "Oh well..." and sell it. So be aware that some times I just price a stone high because I do not care if I sell it. Ironically these stones usually sell the fastest...
