4.98 ct Pink Tourmaline - Oval

At 4.98 carats, this rubellite tourmaline from Brazil carries its pink color through an oval cut, measuring 14.1 x 9.2 x 5.9 mm.

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 is heat-treated, a common and honest preparation across the colored-stone trade, disclosed on every listing.

A single natural gemstone with no duplicate behind it; once it is set or collected, there is no other. It will outlast everyone who owns it, which is most of what an heirloom really is. Hand-selected and photographed by Caveman Gems in good light, shown as honestly as a screen allows.
