2.36 ct Red Tourmaline - Round

This 2.36-carat tourmaline is cut as a round measuring 8.5 x 5.8 mm, with a red body color, sourced from Nigeria.

Tourmaline takes a wider range of color than almost any other gem species, because its crystal will accept so many different coloring elements. Nigeria's gem fields rose to prominence in the 1990s and remain a significant modern source. It is wholly untreated, its color finished by geology rather than by any furnace or enhancement.

This is a center-stone-grade gemstone with a character of its own, chosen rather than settled for. Caveman Gems hand-selects every gemstone and photographs it in good light, to give you the truest look a screen can.
