I'm even willing to buy big and get it re-cut......

I've sent a email about this one, it's oval but still right size and colour: http://www.pearlmansjewelers.com/gemstones/?sku=G87164
Chroman had got me onto this one earlier in the thread

Still like the color on that last one

Have you seen:
http://www.precisiongem.com/gemstackpage/gems.php?product/page/910/Gem+1864+-+Tourmaline

Thats another that I love the color on. The size isnt quite what you wanted, but it I could see it making a nice 3 stone ring.

Or this, but it might be dark:

I do like the precision gem stone Chroman, do you think the inclusions are fine?

 

[SparkliesLuver]

I was going to suggest the Precision Gem one too. The color is awesome and, personally, I think the inclusions are fine.

 

[chroman]

Yeah, for me that color trumps the small inclusions. An open, blue/green or green/blue and totally clean piece is a rarity, and usually priced accordingly!

Given the price and color, I've drooled over it since it was listed. But I have some setting to do, so no more stones for me now...

Great thank you! The colour is spot on for me too, I presume the inclusions I can see are because the video is taken closely, maybe a macro or something??
I've emailed the link to my jeweller to see what he thinks about it being re-cut (sorry if that upsets you) to make it smaller length ways for my engagement ring and emailed Precision Gem about it too.
Thanks again, your advice is always so helpful!

You could also ask Gene about recutting it, if you know the exact dimensions. Might be worth including in your email or reply, if you want. Keep us posted!

I saw this one on facebook and thought of you.
5+ ct and he lowered the price to $1,175.00

Or, from the same group (don't know the seller). Its a shield but the color looks yummie (though I'd want to see more pics to see how dark it is) and if it has a window.. Kind of an awkward pose..
