In this short transformation video we take an orange tourmaline with a very typical Portuguese cut and recut it to improve the color and brightness. The Portuguese cut often shows the same negative attributes as we can see here: a pale window with a black ring around it, only revealing the stones true color around the outside edge. Once recut into a mixed cut, the window and black ring are gone and the color is revealed in the entire stone. If you are interested in having us recut or cut your stones, please email me: justinkprim at gmail.com
