OTL, I'd love to see more pictures of both of your stones. I'm definitely looking for that electric blue. Do you have any plans to do anything with them? Just curious.

Do most people leave hauyne in the box or has anyone ventured to set it somehow?

Yes that's a dreamy black opal, it's not mine though. I wish it was!

I haven't took pictures of the other one yet but it looks just like this one.
I've no plans to set them...too small, both are 0.1xct, maybe someday, on a ring, as small side stones.

Oh, okay. Twins. :) Gotcha.

Yeah. All of them are small. The one I'm considering is .25 ct. I'd love to put it in a ring somehow - and be very careful with it - as I can't imagine wearing it any other way since I'd never be able to see it. And I hate the thought of it just sitting in a box. :( I emailed a jeweler to see if they'd take on the project/get their thoughts.

OTL, do you mind telling us who you purchased your Hauyne from ? Was it rare stones ? I just started researching these gems and am going through all previous posts.
Thanks !

It is the most beautiful blue. I"ve always coveted one. About as likely as getting a Rembrandt.
Hi. I have a antique German Hauyne ring in 14k gold . Unusually large piece. Originally purchased in Wuppertal Germany. Would consider selling . If interested ask for pics.

Wow, old thread.

Neon blue apatite is almost identical in color to hauyne if people are looking for that color.

Neon blue and paraiba colored apatite are indeed underrated.
For earrings or pendants - why not...

Had to post another shameless photo of my apatite. 0.75carats.. Very clean, It has a needle but that’s it.

Some dealers compare this color to hauyne. They are soft though, and should be worn with caution.

I just saw a gorgeous cushion over a carat on Instagram. I almost posted it.

Nice collection!

I've seen some on sale in Japan that ranges from just under half a carat to just over a carat.

Cant find it, but it was similar in color to this.


Thanks. I found some on jewelclimb.com but unfortunately the large ones (1ct+) were sold ㅠㅠ

Thanks for the photo. It really shows the variation in saturation and tone, which is hard to see in the tiny stones.

Here's some in a ring, but no international shipping it seems, and a hefty price tag (though I think that's the case with this stone):

1.025 cts:


0.9 cts:


Also an unset 1.13 cts one:

Yes, saturation can very quite a bit. I've noticed it more lately, even in the smaller sizes. Perhaps because there is less available and the lesser stuff is what some have left.

As the larger pieces are out of my price range, I love using hauyne melee in jewelry.
