I am now working on a 6ct emerald cut bluish green tourmaline. The cutter describe it as a seafoam green. I am really excited about it.
Wohoo! Now that sounds really interesting!

The stone sounds really wonderful already, please do post photos if you are able to.

Have you receive the gorgeous BB blue-green tourmaline yet?
Yes, I have and it is beautiful! I really do love it!

I''ve got a picture. It is a beautiful green but doesn''t seem exactly seafoam on this picture. I am asking for more information and pics. What do you ladies think?

I see a hint of gray, but otherwise the colour is quite nice, definitely different from the usual darker blue green tourmalines. As usual, the cutting is excellent.

Yes, me too. I have asked if there is any gray in it in real life. I guess it is darn obvious who the cutter is, isn''t it?

It's a pretty stone, and that will not go extinct in various lighting, so that's a plus. However, it seems a bit green to be seafoam. They're typically more blue-green (equal parts blue and green). Here are some examples of various shades of seafoam tourmaline.

Will you be posting photos?

Also your new emerald cut stone is gorgeous, but I have a different perception of sea foam green too.

Are you waiting to hear back from Barry or just mulling if it’s the right one?
