Michael E. light green tourmaline

[cushioncutnut]

It really blazes with fire in person. I notice in the pictures the crystal like inclusions but the cut is so phenominal... I really don''t see them in person. This cushion cut has a unique shape. I forget the exact name of it...so maybe someone can tell me what it is. The cut looks to be a mix of a concave cut and native cut. This stone was cut by Michael E. himself. My birthstone is peridot and I usually don''t like peridot....so I went for this beauty instead. Shhh... no one is going to know it is not a peridot unless you tell them!!
