Chrono said:It depends on the purity of hue, tone and level of saturation. Treatment also should be taken into consideration. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.
Chrono said:I prefer the 4 ct pink tourmaline for 2 reasons:
1. The busier cutting is better suited to the low RI of tourmaline
2. The way it is cut, the colour is more evenly distributed throughout the stone, whereas the smaller one pales out towards the edges.
More importantly, do these tourmalines hold their colour? Neither are a strong saturated pink but if you prefer this, then I’ll say no more about it.
