That''s a pretty mint, and how convenient that it fits into a standard oval setting, even with a fancy cut.

Thank you everyone!!!! I''m really excited about this one and hope to have Julia do something with it. TL, I know!!! I''m about to order a tripod...FINALLY.....my darn hands shake too much to get a decent shot of my own! I keep taking photos with my cell phone and it just doesn''t get the job done.

Lori, what a gorgeous stone. Just love the colour. I saw some mint garnets earlier this year and I was blown away by them. I think you will love it.

The only thing wrong with this thread Lori is that you have the wrong title. It should be "Gorgeous New Minty Tourmaline!"

I hope you can post pictures (even bad ones). Now when I think of mint, THAT is the color I think of.
