BI-COLOUR GEMS

 Bi-colour gemstones are gemstones that exhibit two distinct colours within a single stone. This colour separation can occur in various ways, adding visual interest and uniqueness to the gem. The division of colours can be sharp and defined, or it may have a gradual transition from one colour to another. Bi-colour gemstones are valued for their striking and contrasting hues
Watermelon Tourmaline is one of the most well-known examples of bi-colour gemstones. Watermelon tourmaline typically features a combination of pink or red at the centre, resembling the inner flesh of a watermelon, and green around the edges. The transition from one colour to the other is often gradual. Apart from watermelon tourmaline, other tourmaline varieties exhibit bi-colour characteristics. These may include combinations like pink and green or blue and green.
Ametrine is a type of quartz that combines both amethyst (purple) and citrine (yellow) in the same crystal. The boundary between the two colours can vary, creating unique and beautiful patterns.
Bi-colour gemstones are prized for their unique aesthetic and the way they showcase the beauty of multiple colours within a single gem. The appeal of bi-colour stones often lies in the contrast and harmony between the different hues, making them a popular choice for distinctive and eye-catching jewellery.
