1 Watermelon tourmaline: red+green
When it comes to multicolor gems, the most typical one is the watermelon tourmaline of tourmaline family.
Tourmaline is also called "rainbow falling into the dust", which means that the colors are quite rich, covering almost all the colors you can think of, from the common red tourmaline and purple tourmaline to the rare green tourmaline and blue tourmaline. Among them, one kind of tourmaline is favored and has two different colors, which is watermelon tourmaline.
This tourmaline comes in green and red colors. It looks like a cut watermelon with "red flesh and green skin", which is very pleasing to the eye. Even among the favorite things of the old Buddha statue of Cixi, there is a watermelon tourmaline. Unfortunately, this watermelon tourmaline is missing, otherwise Sister Bao really wants to see what this baby looks like ~
Amethyst: purple+yellow
Amethyst is a special member of the crystal family. It is the only two-color crystal, which has the mysterious purple of amethyst and the rich yellow of topaz at the same time, which is very magical. Amethyst not only has high face value, but also has quite good effect. It can be said that there is both wisdom and wealth.
3 copper pectin stone: blue+white
Copper emerald is a kind of gem that has caught fire in recent years. Its appearance is mixed with blue and white, just like white foam stirred up by rolling waves. It is refreshing and can relieve people's anxiety and uneasiness. Because of its beautiful appearance and powerful effect of relieving emotions, it is deeply loved by women. Shanghai aragonite is not common in the market, and it is difficult to process (low hardness and easy to waste), so the price has been rising all the way in recent years.
4 Papara Cha: pink+orange.
This name sounds a bit awkward, like the name of a small gem, but it is actually a very precious sapphire. The name Papara Cha comes from Sanskrit and translates into "Lotus" in Chinese. This name also accurately and vividly describes the color characteristics of Papara Cha sapphire.
On the gems of pagbalha, there are exquisite pink and lively orange at the same time. With the cooperation of these two colors, Papara just presents a unique exquisite and gorgeous feeling.
However, unlike other two-color gemstones, the pink and orange of Papara Cha are not distinct, but blended together, and it is very rare to have pink and orange tones at the same time.
A hole in the sky-multicolored gem
Multicolored gems can be understood by everyone. What is this multicolored gem? Although there is only one word difference, the difference is still quite big. Simply put, a multicolored gem is a gem that is one color from this angle and becomes another color from another angle. Polychromaticity, a special attribute, not only makes gemstones more ornamental, but also becomes an effective method to identify true and false gemstones. 1 tanzanite: tricolor
The most famous multicolor gem is tanzanite. Do you think the blue-purple color of Tanzanite is particularly attractive?
This can be attributed to its polychromatic color. From this direction, tanzanite is more blue, but from another direction, it is rich purple, and from another angle, it is faintly yellow (but now the mainstream view is that yellow will affect the quality of tanzanite, so the less you see yellow, the better ...)
If there is no multicolor, Tanzanite may only bring us pure blue or purple, but because of multicolor, Tanzanite has a richer color level, which also provides a simple and practical method for people who like Tanzanite: turn Tanzanite upside down. If the color has not changed at all, it must be a fake.
Cordierite: tricolor
Regarding the word cordierite, I don't know if fans have any impression. Sister Bao introduced a kind of gem to you before. It has a very special appearance, and there is a starry sky inside, called Blood Cordierite.
△ Blood drop cordierite
The cordierite mentioned in it is the gem we are going to talk about today.
The whole family of cordierite has a very strong polychromatic color. Like tanzanite, three colors can be seen: blue, purple and light yellow. Although the appearance and characteristics are similar to those of tanzanite, cordierite is far less popular than tanzanite, and it is rarely sold in the market and its price is much lower.
However, no one can say for sure about the jewelry industry. Things have often happened in the east and west of Hedong in these 30 years. Maybe one day, cordierite will also usher in a fire day ~
6 Tourmaline: Dichroism
Tourmaline is particularly attractive, in addition to its rich colors, there is also an important reason for its polychromatic color. However, unlike the tanzanite and cordierite above, tourmaline has only two colors, and this multi-color is different according to the color of tourmaline itself: for example, if you turn the red tourmaline over, you will see two colors: deep red and light red.
Turn the green tourmaline, you will see dark green and light green, and so on ~
This feature is very practical when buying tourmaline: the colored glass often used for fake tourmaline is not multi-colored, no matter how it is translated, it is the same color and will not change.
In fact, there are many kinds of polychromatic gemstones, among which rubies, emeralds, emeralds, topaz, aquamarine, beryl, andalusite and sphene are common. Due to the limitation of space, Sister Bao won't introduce them one by one. Fans can usually appreciate the selection of these gems and experience this magical multicolor ~

The Magic of Light —— Color-changing Gem
Color-changing gemstone is a particularly magical species in the chameleon gemstone family. Its magic can not be separated from the help of light: when the light changes, the color of the gemstone will also change, and the most typical color-changing gemstone is stone.
It is called "Emerald by day, Ruby by night". In the sun, it looks like emerald, and in incandescent lamp or candlelight, it turns red, just like emerald is turned into ruby by a pair of magical hands.
The greener a gem is in the sun, the deeper and purer it is in incandescent light, and the better its quality.
The variable stone, also known as "Alexander stone", was found on the birthday of Russian emperor Alexander II, hence its name. Because of its lovely colors (red and green are the colors of the Russian flag), this gem is directly known as the national stone of Russia. At present, the output of metamorphic rocks is very scarce and the price is quite expensive. If metamorphic rocks also have cat's eye effect,
