Tourmaline

Item Description

Tourmalines are some of the most diverse and popular gems out there. This stone shows a LIVELY bubble-gum pink color that is not very common in gems this size. One of the most impressive aspects of this gem is the fact that nearly eye clean which is remarkable for Tourmaline. The stone has a beautiful "Round Brilliant" cut, and would look superb in a pendant. Tourmaline is classified as a "Type 3" gemstone, as inclusions are almost always present, and accepted by dealers and collectors, so when you find a nearly clean stone like this, it's a real treat. I have to say that these stones are becoming harder and harder to find these days with so much gem Tourmalines coming out of Brazil and Africa lately. Retail value on this stone is $1038.00
