Are there any tutorials for colored stones? I have a

[Stone Hunter]

large gem that may be Tourmaline but I don''t know how to tell.

I also have earings that may be citrine or topaz. They appear as a brownish orange. Look more like the topaz that I see for sale on gem sites.

I have searched the forum and will stop by the jewelry store this week but don''t know how easy it is for a jewler to just look and tell me.

Any ideas?

Check around some jewelry stores employ a gemologist . They some times will provide a gem identy service for a small fee. Hope this helps. Doug
