Looking for a tsav... HELP!

[dancingflame]

Ok ladies and gents, beginning the search for an emerald cut tsav. It''s for a friend''s birthday and I want to set it into a pendant. I''m looking for something kinda big and saturated. She likes dark, velvety greens. Let me know if you come across anything. I don''t have a particular budget, as long as it''s fabulous. Thanks!!!

Tsavorites can be very expensive; up to thousands of dollars depending on the size and colour. It price goes up exponentially starting at over 1 ct. I think you need to really think about what you''d like to set your budget at.

Lisa Elser has a pretty nice 3.6ct on her website.

Found this one on AJS - http://www.ajsgems.com/tsavorite-garnet/gemstone-garnet-1374061964-2046340407.html

I''d ask for more pictures of it, though.

ETA: haha me and LTP posted at the same time

ETAA: have you thought about maybe even a Chrome Tourmaline or Green Tourmaline instead since its going into a pendant? just because as Chrono mentioned that it will be quite expensive on the rather large size.

I think the marks are at the 2, 3, and 5 carat points. Wherever they are, good tsavorites are expensive. Here''s a lovely blue-green emerald cut tourmaline: http://www.paraibainternational.com/products.php?category=7&products_shape=2&sort_price=&sort_weight=&products_quantity_type=0&products_color=2&sort_new=&page=products.php&submit=Refine+Search

Not sure if it is the right color, but it is the size and cut you are looking for so I thought I would put it up. Scroll to the bottom of the page

Lucky friend she is!

Slight threadjack but I remember your search for a baby pink sapphire for your e-ring and how you ended up with one from planetary gems! If I remember correctly you used an LOGR setting?

I always wanted to see pictures of how that came out! If I missed them please point me in right direction
