12.89 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Rubellite Tourmaline Pair from Brazil

From the deep, sun warmed pegmatites of Brazil comes a pair of rubellite tourmalines that tell a story of earth and craft, a story we at The Natural Gemstone Company are proud to share. Formed over millions of years as mineral rich fluids cooled and crystallized, these transparent oval pinkish red rubellites reveal an intense color that seems to hold the memory of Brazilian sunsets. Carefully recovered by experienced hands, each rough stone was chosen for its clarity and color before being shaped by master cutters into an elegant checkerboard cut, a decision made to maximize the lively flashes and velvety depth of hue. The pair weighs 5.98 carats and 6.91 carats respectively, the first measuring 13.69 by 11.17 by 6.50 millimeters, the second measuring 14.50 by 10.89 by 7.38 millimeters, and both show a clarity grade described as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level. With no enhancement, intense color intensity, and an excellent polish, these rubellites retain their natural character and luminous presence.

Imagine these stones transformed into a custom pair of earrings, each facet narrating its origin as it catches the light near the wearer s face. The checkerboard surface will scatter light in playful, controlled flashes, making prong set designs sing with movement, while bezel settings will emphasize the gems rich color for a more modern, wearable statement. The slightly different weights and dimensions give the pair a hand matched harmony that feels organic rather than manufactured, perfect for designs that celebrate individuality within balance. These rubellites will pair beautifully with warm metals such as rose gold to enhance their pinkish red tones, and with white gold or platinum when a more formal, vivid contrast is desired. For a bespoke creation our design team can suggest halo accents, delicate milgrain, or minimalist studs that let the intense color speak for itself. When you commission earrings from The Natural Gemstone Company you are choosing stones with provenance, exceptional polish, and honest clarity, a combination that invites a lasting connection. Let us help you translate this geological journey into an heirloom pair of earrings that will carry its story with quiet confidence and enduring beauty.
