Stones above may have some small inclusions, but they are not that noticeable without magnification.





3.97ct Bright Neony Blue Tourmaline
This material displays a bright blue under incandescent and sunlight, and a more subdued blue under incandescent.  This gem was faceted from the rough by our U.S. Cutters.  There may be some small inclusions within the stone, but nothing that detracts from the beauty - note that this is typically expected when one finds a color like this in tourmaline. A Paraiba look-a-like!  Far less saturated blue, but still neony, fetches $2,000/ct (wholesale) in Thailand.  This is faceted not only in the US and the cutting is superior to most cutting done in Thailand, but the inclusions are small and the color is head and shoulders above the color just described that is occasionally seen in the gemstone buying offices in Thailand. (norgem-98b-c1)   $6,948

Green Blue or Blue Green Tourmaline - U.S Faceted

The gemstones below  will color shift under different lights.  Typically, under fluorescent lights, the color is subdued, pastel or lighter.  Under sunlight or incandescent light, the colors are much brighter and some are neony.  The photos below where photographed under office fluorescent lights.  Note also that these colors typically have some inclusions but none of the stones below have anything that is detrimental.  These gemstones are also highly dichroic so turning the gemstone slightly may give an entirely different color such as blue, green and variations of those colors.   You can see this natural physical characteristic of tourmaline in the photos below .

B -   2.25ct Elongated Green-Blue Tourmaline, Brazil, (mvk-7256-13)  $789





4.93ct Bluish Green Tourmaline
This tourmaline picks up different colors depending on the available light.  It can be a bright bluish green to a deeper blue green.  The cutting style on this piece is unique and has a nice play of light.  There is a stress fracture deep in the stone which can be seen in the photos.  This is very typical of tourmaline and in this case, it should not affect the setting of the gemstone and it is not very visible due to the cutting and scintillation of the stone when it is being moved around or being worn as a piece of jewelry.  The line that is visible in the photo above is what is being described.  It is evident in the photos since the photo is still and the fine faceting of the piece is not sparkling.  If this bothers the purchaser, the stone can be made smaller and this line removed.  For the size of the stone, along with the color and the cutting, the price is very reasonable.  $1,109  (FIVLGEM-96-001)
