What is special about 1-2 carat Green Tourmaline stones?
Stones in the 1-2 carat range are ideal for fine jewelry, offering rich color without being too large for everyday wear. They also strike a good balance between size and affordability.
Are all Green Tourmaline stones naturally colored?
Most green Tourmalines are untreated, but some may be heat-treated to enhance clarity or deepen the color. Treatment disclosure is important when purchasing.
What shades are available in 1-2 carat Green Tourmaline?
You can find a range from mint green to deep forest and chrome green. The most valuable are vivid, saturated greens with good clarity.
Which shapes are commonly available in this size range?
Oval, emerald cut, round, and pear shapes are the most common for 1-2 carat Green Tourmaline, often selected to best display the gem’s natural brilliance.

I found what I was looking for...had to look up millimeters to inches. It would be nice to see something, like a quarter, in the pix to show relative size. I plan on buy loose gemstones for every month in the calendar

I love the quality, presentation and the price of the stones. I love the identification card - report they send with each stone.
