Item Description
Tourmalines are some of the most diverse and popular gems out there. This stone has an eye-catching bluish-green color with an "Oval" cut. One of the most impressive aspects of this gem is the fact that it is only very slightly included which is remarkable for Tourmaline, as it isclassified as a "Type 3" gemstone, and inclusions are almost always present and accepted by dealers and collectors. I have to say that these stones are becoming harder and harder to find these days with so much gem Tourmalines coming out of Africa and Brazil.
