Description
This tourmaline is a beautiful mint green color–light green with a blue secondary. Completely natural and untreated, this tourmaline comes from recent mining work in Nigeria. It is very clean, with just a few small trichyte inclusions, only one of which is visible with a loupe. In the hand at normal viewing distance the gem appears completely clean and is very bright and scintillating.
I faceted this gem in my custom “Helena” brilliant oval design. The resulting gemstone is extremely bright and flashy, and has excellent off-axis performance. The gem weighs 8.78 carats and measures 13.7 x 11.6 x 9.0 mm. It would make a beautiful center stone for a pendant or ring.

Video Request
Although we do our best to take the highest quality images, sometimes it can be difficult to envision how it will look on your hand. We can take a video of up to four gems side by on the hand to help you compare them and see how they perform in daylight. Please provide the following information, and include the SKU numbers or links to the stones you would like to see a video of.
Please note that we don’t do 360-degree videos as colored gems are optimized to be viewed face up, and because the current technology is such that none of the 360-degree systems we have tested provides the accurate color. Our desire is to present the most honest and accurate color possible!
