Recently recut from a badly cut oval of 1.90 ct., this is one of the most unusual tourmalines we've ever come across.
It's an example of what would be a nice pad-like color combination in sapphire, except it's a tourmaline instead. Even considering bicolor tourmalines in general, the color combination is pretty rare.
***DETAILS***
Variety: Multicolor tourmaline
Weight: 1.11 ct.
Color: Orange-yellow-pink mix
Shape & cut: Oval, barion cut
Dimensions: 7.65 x 5.87 x 4.37 mm
Clarity: Eye clean
Treatments: None
***ADDITIONAL INFO***
A collector's stone for sure - we've never come across another in tens of thousands of tourmalines from Africa and Sri Lanka that we've seen in these past few years.
Note that in incandescent light, it shifts to a more even and mellow champagne color throughout.
Very well cut, eye clean and lively.
***SHIPPING***
Tracked and insured shipping is included.
***PAYMENT***
PayPal preferred under $1,000. Over $1,000 a direct bank TT is preferable but PayPal is still an option if their fees are covered.
***RETURNS***
Returns are totally okay but please note that they come minus the insured shipping costs paid to send you the stones. A government-issued invoice signed and stamped by Customs, government valuer-gemmologists and postal agents for stones + shipping comes within every parcel with the exact breakdown of shipping and insurance costs paid on export. Most of the time these amount to $55-60 for sub $1k value shipments.
