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.
Is Green Tourmaline durable enough for daily wear?
Yes. With a hardness of 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, Green Tourmaline is suitable for rings and other frequently worn pieces if properly set.
How much does a 1-2 carat Green Tourmaline typically cost?
Prices vary by clarity and hue but generally range from $40 to $200 per carat. Chrome Tourmaline tends to be at the higher end of this range.
Is certification available for these gemstones?
Yes. Reputable sellers like GemSelect provide natural, certified Green Tourmaline, and can offer gemstone reports upon request.
Can I find matching pairs of 1-2 carat Green Tourmalines?

I was looking for a site with every type of gem I could want for setting in luxury blades and assumed I would need to look outside the US, but GemSelect made it easy to get everything I wanted without leaving the house! Wide enough selection that I do not feel the need to look elsewhere and pricing the same.
