This gotta be the prettiest pink tourmaline I have seen. Weighing 4.38 carats, this tourmaline measures a good 10.84mm and is completely eye clean. The cut is a 'fancy cut cornered Barion Octagon'. The color is really something else ;) ... a very nice saturated medium tinted pink. I have not seen it in sunlight; it had been a really cloudy today but according to the gemcutter, it shows some interesting lavendar colors in sunlight. Hopefully we will have sunny morning tomorrow and then I will get busy. Excellent brilliance with yummy flashes of a spectral colors.
I have not yet decided what I want to do with this but I am thinking of a ring with halo filigree. The contrast of the medium pink against the brilliant white of FG diamond melees .. will be bring out the color of the tourmaline very nicely. Any more ideas?
