8.22 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Tourmaline Pair from Brazil

From the mineral-rich hills of Brazil to the quiet, methodical hands of our cutters, these green pear shaped tourmalines carry a story of earth and craft. Formed over millions of years within pegmatite veins, they were unearthed where sunlight and soil conspire to produce the most vivid tones of green. At The Natural Gemstone Company we select rough material for its natural transparency and depth of color, and these two stones stood out immediately. Weighing 3.86 carats and 4.36 carats respectively, with dimensions of 18.66 by 6.89 by 4.97 millimeters and 18.69 by 6.92 by 5.56 millimeters, they were shaped into elegant pear silhouettes and given a mixed brilliant cut to maximize their internal fire and graceful lines. Each gem presents intense color intensity, an excellent polish, and a clarity grade of very slightly included evaluated at eye level. The pair has been heat treated to enhance hue and stability, a common and accepted enhancement that brings forward the tourmaline green without obscuring the natural character that makes Brazilian specimens so cherished.

As a pair destined for earrings, these tourmalines are perfect for a custom creation that balances nature and design, their matching lengths and near identical widths ensuring a harmonious silhouette when worn. The pear shape lends itself to both refined drops and bold, artistic settings, and the mixed brilliant facets will catch and return light with every turn, offering movement and lively sparkle near the brow and jawline. The slight difference in weight adds to the narrative of uniqueness, a reminder that these are natural gems with individual histories rather than mass produced replicas. Commissioned as a custom pair of earrings from The Natural Gemstone Company, they can be set in warm yellow gold to deepen the green, in cool white gold or platinum for a contemporary contrast, or paired with delicate diamonds to amplify brilliance while honoring the tourmaline as the focal point. Beyond aesthetics, green tourmaline carries a long cultural association with renewal and balance, making these earrings not only beautiful, but meaningful. Whether you seek a daily signature piece or an heirloom to mark a milestone, this pair invites a thoughtful design process that celebrates their Brazilian origin, their careful cutting and polish, and your personal story.
