Obviously this is considerably simplified from the incredibly ornate sunstone you're used to, but it's got enough of that detail to suggest the sunstone while still being printable on a consumer 3D printer.
Probably best printed in either a dark green (suggestive of jade) or a metallic color. You probably want to use a horizontal resolution of 0.1 because layers are only about 0.2mm high. Note that even at that resolution, and even with this as simple as it is, you'll need a really good printer to get all the detail -- you can see my printer didn't do so good in PLA, there's definite artifacting at this scale.
There are two versions, one with and one without a loop at the top for making it into jewelry.
