These gorgeous subtle sage green gemstones were precision custom cut for HPJ by a Master Cutter based in Akron, Ohio, USA. We have worked with this Cutter for many years now, and his work is sheer artistry.
Prasiolite, Green-Quartz, or Vermarine, is a green form of Quartz, a silicate mineral chemically silicon dioxide. Prasiolite is one of several Quartz varieties, which of course include the Amethyst. Personally I prefer the name ‘Vermarine’ which I think fits this extraordinary gem just perfectly.
This new Brazilian Quartz has become the most popular member of the extensive gem family since dusty blue Chalcedony took the fashion world by storm some years back. As this newcomer has become a market sensation, dealers and designers have sought to capitalize on its family ties by naming it ‘Green Amethyst’
Whatever the new Quartz is called, clearly this sage-green gem has arrived. Already big-name designers like David Yurman and John Atencio are making much ado about this gem, whose whispery hues conjure the pale salad-greens of cucumber wedges and hearts of palm.
What can be said with absolute certainty, is whether you call it Prasiolite, Vermarine, or Green Amethyst, it is an extremely beautiful gemstone.
