Do you want to know more about the green central gemstone in this special engagement ring?â đ Keep reading đ Tourmaline is a highly popular gemstone that comes in a variety of different colours, sometimes several in just one stone. The Dutch started importing them from Sri Lanka in the 18th century when they were called Turamali, meaning mixed colours. â đ Out of the many colours of Tourmaline, green, blue and pink are the most common. These can range from pastel to intense neons, unique bi- and tricolours. â đ Different shades of one colour can be seen in a Tourmaline, depending on the viewing angle. â Common inclusions and its hardness of 7-7.5 on the Mohs scale make the Tourmaline vulnerable to pressure and require special care during stone-setting as there is a risk of the stone breaking. For this reason, many goldsmiths avoid working with Tourmaline. â đŹ At Zmay, we take its fragility into consideration when designing a piece of jewelry, since some designs are more Tourmaline-friendly than others. All the same, when wearing jewelry with this delicate gemstone, hitting hard surfaces should be avoided as is the case with many other softer gemstones. â đ Let yourself fall in love with the many shades of the beautiful Tourmaline and feel free to ask us any questions about it in the comments below. đ {You can read more about Tourmalines and other gemstones in The Jeweler's Directory of Gemstones by Judith Crowe}â â #zmay #zmayjewelryâ .â .â .â #zarocni #zaroÄni â #zarocniprstan #zaroÄniprstanâ #zarocniprstani #zaroÄniprstaniâ #zaroka #engagementâ #engagementringideas #engagementringgoals #surpriseproposalâ #ljubljana #engagementdayâ #ring #instaringsâ #ponarocilu #uniqueengagementringâ #customengagementring #rosegoldengagementringâ #ringselfies #finejewellerydesignerâ #finejewelrydesign #finejewelrydesignerâ #engagementringselfieâ #tourmalinering #tourmalinejewelry #greentourmalineâ #turmalin
