Tourmaline

	Stone : Pink Tourmaline Item : #r182 Origin : Himalaya Mine, California, USA Weight : 27.6 ct Clarity : Slightly Included Comments : This is a very fine piece of pink tourmaline from the world renown Himalaya Mine in California. Tourmalines from this location are very collectable indeed. This piece is the same pink as #r188 but slightly less intense. It will cut a slightly included stone, probably around a 10mm Acorn or an oval.
	Stone : Bubblegum Pink Tourmaline Item : #r176 Origin : Afghanistan Weight : 12 ct Clarity : Very Slightly Included Comments : I love this bubblegum pink tourmaline from Afghanistan. The colour is beautiful, soft and delicate. This stone should cut a rectangle around 6-7x11mm. It's a perfect match for #r174.
	Stone : Pink Tourmaline Item : #r149 Origin : Nigeria Weight : 7.8, 7 ct Clarity : Eye Clean/Very Slightly Included Comments : Mouthwatering pink tourmaline like this are so beautiful. These are natural untreated tourmalines with a softer sort of pink as opposed to the really hot pink material that comes from Nigeria as well. These are actually really nice crystals and deserve the best cutting. I think the longer piece on the left will look great as an emerald step cut. I think this would best show off the wonderful colour and would look quite elegant. The other piece on the right has a small fine veil that will show up in the finished gem but certainly wouldn't detract from it. The colour more then makes up for it and I think this would make a great asscher cut. They both have an open "C" axis with a nice rich pink showing along it.
	Stone : Mint Green Tourmaline Item : #r150 Origin : Afghanistan Weight : 3.1, 4.3, 5.2 ct Clarity : Eye Clean/Very Slightly Included Comments : Delightful soft mint green tourmaline from Afghanistan. These are very nice pieces and I think the blocky piece will cut a very nice square gem, either an asscher or a square cushion. They all have an open "C" axis.
	Stone : Pink Tourmaline Item : #r147 Origin : Nigeria Weight : Up to 10 ct Clarity : Eye Clean/Very Very Slightly Included Comments : Really vivid hot pink tourmaline from Nigeria. This material cuts a very impressive gemstone! SEE A GEMSTONE CUT FROM THIS ROUGH HERE
	Stone : Tourmaline Item : #r94 Origin : Afghanistan Weight : 9.3 ct Clarity : Eye Clean to Very Very Slightly Included Comments : Another great bicoloured mint green-blue (teal) /clear afghan tourmaline. I expect this to cut an eye clean to very very slightly included stone and would ideally suit a long rectangular design. Open C axis.
	Stone : Tourmaline Item : #r95 Origin : Afghanistan Weight : 9.2 ct Clarity : Eye Clean Comments : This is an absolutely dynamite afghan tourmaline in excellent blue/green tones. I expect this to cut an eye clean to maybe a very very slightly included stone. I have it earmarked for a pear/teardrop design. A top stone! Open C axis.
	Stone : Tourmaline Item : #r100 Origin : Afghanistan Weight : 5.7 ct Clarity : Eye Clean Comments : A beautiful blue/green tourmaline... its one of those stone that when you look at it one way you see green, look at it another and you see blue. Much nicer colours then the photos suggest. I expect it to cut an eye clean stone. Ideally a rectangular design would suit this stone. Open C axis.
	Stone : Tourmaline Item : #r101 Origin : Afghanistan Weight : 5 ct Clarity : Eye Clean Comments : A beautiful blue/green tourmaline which fades to softer tones at one end. I expect it to cut an eye clean stone. Ideally a rectangular design would suit this stone. Open C axis.
