Best green stone & cut for dispersion ?

Budget? Size? Wearability?

Undecided if it will be a ring or pendant.

Size - 1- 2 cts.

Budget - a few hundred, not looking to anything big.

Thanks.

Green tourmaline (slightly above budget):

Chrome diopside:

Chrome diopside might fill the bill.  They come in small to large sizes and in different ranges of green.  They are also very affordable.

Won''t a dark body color mask a stone''s dispersion? In any case, you might try to hunt down a green zircon. I believe they have a fairly high dispersion.

Thanks Harriet.  I do like that first one.  That was so very nice of you to look.  Not really above budget either.  I love cushion (maybe a touch light though, maybe) and that is a great one.  As for the pear - not into a pear (nor round) for a green stone.  I'm liking cushions for a green.

Yes, I know too dark cuts the green color but I didn't mean that dark.  Thanks for the reminder on that.  :)

Will search on green zircon later.

You are all the best.  Thanks.

Question - do stones on the computer screen tend to appear darker or lighter than they actually are?

Green Zircon will have the highest dispersion.

I have some chrome diopsides which are beautiful - they are quite fragile though.

Here''s a blue-green zircon, which does not have any yellow: http://www.artcutgems.com/item.php?item_id=328&page=2&category_id=49

I like the blue/green on paper but not really to own.  Also, that one is not my shape.  Thanks, though. 

Looking more to learn, right now, than purchase.

I have a lovely RB hunter green sapphire stone that I really like.
