Striking hot fuchsia color in this Tourmaline in a bright medium light tone. Holds this color in all lights except CFL light, where it turns a coppery orange color which is attractive & you can see orange pleochroism in the video as the Tourmaline turns showing the girdle. I’ve tried to capture it with a picture, but while it is close (hard to capture as I’m not set up for CFL light), the color is prettier to the eye, with a hair more pinkish component. Not a dead brown color. I had to stand on a chair to get a good picture underneath the bathroom lights on the wall, LOL! The things I do for a picture. Lucky it did not fall in the sink!
The stone is very well cut with a large face up with no window & hardly any extinction. Very clean stone, eye clean & better.
A beautiful gem Tourmaline with a rare color change.
