Grandidierite

[kimberlyqkim]

Hi everyone, I'm pretty new here. I collect rare gemstones and grandidierite is my favorite. Anyone interested in buying gem quality grandidierite may consider multicolour.com. They have a good amount of grandidierite to select from. I got mine from them years ago including its GIA certificate. Mine is more blue than green, I assume because of its higher iron content.

Wow thats just STUNNING!

Mine is a baby 1/2 ct (center stone)

Beautifully paired gemstones. If I may ask, is that a brooch or a ring?

It looks almost like a Paraiba in color

It does actually, depending on the lighting. It looks a bit more green under incandescent light and more blue under fluorescent light.

Totally OT, but where has @suzanne2 disappeared to? Her little grandidierite ring was what made me want one!
