Woah! The green nail polish goes well with the indicolite.

Sometimes the mind ignores what is logical because the person cannot accept the reality of what it is.

Coati- thanks... I didn''t know that my nails were going to get this much attention.

Aquasea- thanks so much! I had never seen one quite this color before. But it''s really captivating.

Thanks so much for the compliments everybody! I guess I should paint my nails green more often. I didn''t know that people liked it so much!.

lovinggems- I''m not sure what my plans for the stone are yet. Probably a ring so that I can see it more!

stone hunter- when I look at it, I see a deep turquoise blue, and the step cuts look like a lighter shade of the same color. It''s really very interesting.
