1.81 ct Pink Tourmaline - Cushion

At 1.81 carats, this tourmaline from Brazil carries its pink color through a cushion cut, measuring 8.9 x 6.7 x 4.2 mm.

Tourmaline takes a wider range of color than almost any other gem species, because its crystal will accept so many different coloring elements. Brazil has been one of the most prolific colored-gemstone sources in the world for a century, and still turns up new material on a regular basis. It carries no treatment of any kind, so the color you see is the color that came out of the ground.

This is a center-stone-grade gemstone with a character of its own, chosen rather than settled for. Hand-selected and filmed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
