Teal/turquoise gemstone jewellery?

413x · 29 Jul 2016 at 21:15

Looking for ideas for a necklace with a stone in it that is teal coloured.
Not really sure what gemstones call into this not blue not green range.

Any ideas?

teal topaz maybe?

Agreed, teal topaz. Apatite and zircon can also come in that kind of colour range.

Jade.

What about larimar for something a bit different?

Seen some years ago in the Dominican Republic and it looks good

What other jewellery do you wear? It might be a good idea to compliment rather than replicate the colour.

The thread title mentions something turquoise coloured, so... what about... Turquoise?

His decadent choice of skirt is more to the point.

Ha, will my colour is orange and I only wear dresses in Sundays.. But I should have clarified this isn't for me lol

Turquoise, I'd rather something transparent. Topaz is the one I thought of.. I'll look at some of the others.

Oh wow this is very nice. Not heard of it before.

Was looking for indicolite (tourmaline) but couldn't find anything 'right'

labradorite can be teal like colour, you would just need to find the right one

I've used them several times for presents and their stuff is decent quality.

Topaz.

It keeps going up and up in value too.

413x · 30 Jul 2016 at 10:05

Looks like it's larimar, topaz, labradorite, zircon, tourmaline I'm going for.
Looking for an interesting necklace.

Not decided on the natural or cut look yet.
But think I ive found something on etsy that looks 'her'

Edit, also come across malachite
