Gemstone: Tourmaline - 2.40 Cts.
Unknown Locality
8.30 x 8.09 x 5.01 mm

Weighing 2.40 carats, this cushion-cut Tourmaline reveals a vibrant rosy hue with subtle purplish undertones and bright internal reflections. The polish is smooth and even, highlighting the precision of its faceting and the symmetry of its overall form, although there is a somewhat deep nick to the girdle. Minor inclusions, typical of this variety, lend the gemstone a natural character while preserving its lively brilliance. Graceful in both color and proportion, this finer example of pink Tourmaline would make an elegant choice for a pendant or a ring setting.

Estimate: $300 - up.
