Green Tourmaline - Oval Facet

This one-of-a-kind pale green Tourmaline measures approximately 7.7mm by 6.8mm with a depth of around 5.8mm, offering a beautifully proportioned gemstone with delicate natural colour and lively brilliance. The stone displays a soft fresh green tone reminiscent of spring leaves, pale sage, or young eucalyptus, with subtle variations in saturation that give it an elegant, organic character rather than an overly vivid or artificial appearance.

Its faceted cut enhances the natural clarity and light return of the gemstone, creating gentle flashes and sparkle as the stone moves. The slightly deeper profile adds richness and depth to the colour, allowing the pale green tones to glow softly in changing light. With its balanced proportions and unique colouration, this Tourmaline would make a stunning centre stone for a fine ring, delicate pendant, or bespoke heirloom-style piece.

The soft green palette pairs beautifully with yellow gold for a warm botanical feel, while sterling silver or white gold creates a fresh, contemporary aesthetic that highlights the stone’s cool clarity.

Key Properties & Care

Tourmaline is a highly prized gemstone family known for its enormous range of natural colours and strong optical brilliance.

Mohs Hardness: Tourmaline has a hardness of approximately 7 to 7.5, making it durable enough for most jewellery applications while still benefiting from thoughtful wear and care.

Cleaning: Clean gently using warm soapy water and a soft cloth or brush. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and steam cleaning, particularly if the stone contains natural inclusions or internal fractures.

Maintenance:
Durability: Tourmaline is relatively durable but can chip if exposed to sharp impact, especially around facet edges and pointed areas. Protective settings are recommended for rings intended for everyday wear.
Surface Finish: The faceted cut enhances the stone’s natural brilliance and allows its soft green tones to shift subtly in different lighting conditions.
Storage: Store separately in a soft pouch or lined jewellery box to prevent scratching from harder gemstones and to protect the facet edges.
