TOURMALINE (Brazil) - 4.29 ct. (All uses; Eh)
# Tourm24
The striking Barrel Cut is the secret to this deep chrome green stone's impressive effect. Sudden bursts of bright grass green flash from its depths and march along the surface as it moves in the light. This arresting effect suggests use as a ring stone or pendant. The cut's name comes from the arched shape of a wooden barrel. It features rows of facets cut in sloping arcs across the stone's length and width. Measurements are 7.7 x 9.5 x 6.2 deep. Nearly loupe clean.
