I goofed. I said that everything I had left in my collection was top-tier. That is not the case here. It’s a beautiful stone in daylight, but not in artificial light. I’m doing my best to give you a full disclosure of the good the bad and the ugly here!

Afghanistan Tourmaline (untreated)
2.01ct
7.28 x 7.27 x 5.34 (mm)
Neon Pink to coppery pink
Open tone
Loupe clean
Precison cut, good brilliance
Not certified

This is a great stone if you’re on a budget and don’t mind the color shift in warm artificial lighting.

In natural light, it’s a beautiful pink that can go quite neon at times

In most lighting, however, I noticed slight copper undertones:

I paid too much for the stone ($450) because I didn’t check it in bad lighting before I paid.

To be completely honest, I just don’t want it. I would’ve returned it if I could have.

So, I can only recommend this stone if you’re on a budget and the stone suits you. Make me an offer and I probably won’t refuse it. There’s no way that I expect you to pay the $450 that I did!

Here are the videos that I took the screen grabs from:

Lol! It seems my brutally honest description is not exactly creating a swarm of interested parties :lol-2: :lol-2: :lol-2:.

I kind of figured that would be the case...but was hoping somebody would at least get a chuckle out of it :P2

C'mon! Somebody throw me a bone!
