Another Blue/Green Tourmaline....

[K9]

I'm officially addicted to blue/green tourmalines... please forgive the picture overload!

1.74ct Trillion from Afghanistan
7.5mm

Hanging out in the box, looking quite blue.

Oooh, pretty glow.


Hanging with a friend - my Mozambique tourmaline. Upside down so you can see how much more blue the trillion is.

Lastly, what they remind me of... Grand Cayman.

Ok, last one. For some reason, my pictures are looking washed out on upload. Weird.

Yes, that happens. Drives me batty!!

Very pretty blue/green tourmalines. I was very addicted to them at one time too.

Can't wait to see how you set them.

That is amazing! I love the glow. Does it hold it's color in different lighting? Any plans for it?

I read that you thought they reminded you of the Grand Canyon ............ I had to go back and re-read for obvious reasons!

Very pretty. Are you going to set them or keep them loose?

Beeeeautiful!!!!

davi / LD - it definitely holds its color very well in varying lighting conditions. It's cut very well and has a ton of sparkle and dispersion.

LD - definitely NOT the Grand Canyon!!!

Since I elected to use my funds for more stones instead of settings, they will remain loose for the short term (plus, I have another stone on the way ) The oval will likely be set as a ring and the trillion as a pendant... of course, this is all dependent on what I find for settings!

God, these Tourmalines are crazy beautiful !!!!
That Trillion is just amazingly glowy ~ those stones match
that gorgeous picture of the Caymans perfectly !!!
time for another fruity rum drink
(and not a Dark and Stormy ! that ginger beer is just .... strange.)

Beautiful stones...I love the color!

 

[Lovinggems]

Lovely colour.

 

[K9]

Thanks Shiney, tyty and lovinggems!

Shiney... I will admit - my curiosity was piqued when Arcadian mentioned Dark and Stormy in her thread! I'll just stick to the fruity rum drinks.

 

[GliderPoss]

Oh wow that is totally lush! Looks similar to Paraiba in a way. Do you mind if I ask who the vendor was?

 

[Arkteia]

Beautiful stones!

HotPozzum: The trillion came from Swala!

crasu: Thank you!!
