2.41 Ct. Paraiba Tourmaline from Africa

Imagine the moment you lift a jewel to the light and feel your breath catch, the same quiet wonder that makes a promise feel forever. This 2.41 carat green Paraiba tourmaline from Africa invites that same gasp. Oval in shape and measuring 9.78 x 7.12 x 5.55 mm, it is transparent and lively, cut in a mixed brilliant style that balances scintillation and depth. The color reads as a fresh garden green with medium light intensity, a hue that feels both modern and timeless. Clarity is slightly included, evaluated at eye level, which gives the stone a genuine personality that polished rarity alone cannot buy. With an excellent polish and absolutely no enhancement, this gem arrives to you exactly as the earth intended, a pure offering from nature and from The Natural Gemstone Company.

When you hold this Paraiba next to the great names of gem history, its voice is distinct but equally eloquent. It does not mimic the deep royal green of the Dresden Green, nor does it try to replicate the storied blue of the Hope Diamond. Instead it channels the fresh, ocean kissed radiance that made Paraiba tourmalines famous, while bringing its own African signature of clarity and cool green. Think of Cleopatra and her emeralds for romantic legend, and then imagine a more delicate, luminous cousin that glows from within rather than imposing by mass. The slightly included clarity is like the tiny marks on an heirloom that tell you the object has lived through time. This stone recalls the intimacy of antique gems kept in private collections, gems that carried vows and passages of life. Its mixed brilliant cut throws light differently from the old world table cuts. This creates a modern sparkle that lifts the face and the spirit.

For everyday elegance and special day drama this Paraiba demands attention. At 2.41 carat it has presence enough to become a signature ring or a showstopping pendant, yet its medium light color intensity ensures it will flatter skin tones and coordinate with both white and yellow metals. The oval silhouette reads as elongating and graceful on a finger, and the exact proportions of 9.78 x 7.12 x 5.55 mm make it easy to set as a solitaire or surrounded by a halo that will amplify its inner glow. Because it is untreated, you are wearing a gem that will tell a true story across generations. The cutting and polish bring out flashes of brilliance that evoke the joy of sun on sea, and the natural inclusions give the stone an honest charm that polished perfection cannot convey. This is the kind of jewel that creates a memory when given, like the moment your hand meets another hand and the world narrows to a single click of eternity.
