My wife's new indicolite

[beau-wy]

This is my first attempt to post pics. Dan Stair cut this gem for me, it is a 10.6mm 7.48cts Namibian indicolite tourmaline. It is a bugger to photograph.

With some of the rough.

Very nice! The cut is wonderful. What are her plans for it? Is it a Christmas present (in other words, does she know it's her new indicolite yet)?

Thanks JF! She already has seen it and knows it is hers. She has wanted a big, blue princess cut for a while now. We have blown all of our cash - and then some! - on a house-and-renovations purchase, so the ring will have to wait until next year. She likes solitaires and halos, and three stone rings with side stones ... really not sure on design yet. Will post up some ideas when that time comes.

That's a huge stone!! I suggest setting it on it's side. Very nice cutting.

Lovely cutting, and wow, that is substantial in size! I love indicolite.

Wowee! Maybe Dan's got some leftover rough for me! It's just STUNNING.

Congrats on the new stone. Please protect those pointy corners and have an experienced benchperson set it.

What a gorgeous stone! I admit to a weakness for blue gems with a touch of green and yours is stunning.

Beautiful stone! Absolutely beautiful!
