Really bright and vivid Pink Tourmaline mined here in San Diego, California, the brightest Pink I’ve had in my collection. Very large example. The inclusions appear worse in the magnified pictures than they do in real life. They’re small, and difficult to detect with the naked eye. In person, this stone is very bright and stunning.

We sell only top quality stones on this site. Everything we sell here is both professionally cut and has top color. Most people don’t give nearly enough thought to cut these days. Most stones you’ll see on the open market are cut in third world countries. They try and maximize the carat weight, so they leave large windows, and they almost never do a full diamond polish, because it’s expensive to do. Almost all the gems we sell we first send off to be professionally recut with a full diamond polish. We guarantee you’ll notice the difference. Just take a look at the pictures.

I   took pictures of this stone in multiple lighting environments to give   you the best idea of color and quality. As a certified gemologist I can verify that the above description is     accurate and that this stone/stones have been tested in the gem lab to   verify identity and natural origin.
