I made a modified step cut crown on a standard pavilion for this rather different tourmaline. The round mixes both a pastel purple shaded area and green shaded area into sort of a yellowish green gemstone. I can still see the purple area when I tilt the gemstone enough, but green ended up dominating it. This is probably because the green is in the culet. The gem appears to be eye clean with average crystal and moderate flash. It weigh 3.53 carats.
