I was taking some pics to post on ebay and I took a pic of these four tourmaline crystals..the crystals are real small but the picture turned out real nice..for some reason it caught my the eye..just wanted to share it..i didn''t think about it before i posted but i should have put a pink or a bright green one in there too..would have added to the pic..just thought it was cool..thanks for looking(pic hs not been altered in any way)

4.55ct. M(4) 1.jpg

Thanks for the pics amguy- Can you tell me about the crystal on the far left. Is it a round shape? I love the reflected light from that one.

yep that is a round one..not shaped like the others..I wasn''t taking this pic for any aesthetic reason but noticed how cool it looked as i was uploading like 70 or so pics..out of like 70 for some reason this one caught my eye..looks like something you would see in art work or in a picture on tyhe wall or something..

If you add a pink in the center, it’ll be great as a wallpaper on my computer.

Well, I think your picture displays how tourmaline can vary so much in color. You have to add some red ones to this photo!!

Got these last week..if there was such a thing as padparadscha tourmaline these would be it..they have a peach center and a pink rind..never had any like this before..a little to flawed to cut a good stone..might be able to cut a highly included stone..will have to do as specimens

That’s very unique; a peachy watermelon like tourmaline.
