0.75 Ct. Tourmaline from Mozambique

In the heart of Mozambique, beneath the earth's surface lies the exquisite tourmaline, waiting to be discovered. This land, rich in history and culture, is where our journey begins. Buried beneath layers of ancient soil, the greenish-blue tourmaline forms through a natural orchestration of minerals and time. This remarkable gemstone, at a perfect 0.75 carats, emerges in its marquise shape with dimensions precisely measuring 9.24 by 4.37 by 3.16 mm.
With skillful hands, miners delicately extract the raw gemstone, ensuring its safe passage from the earth to the artisan’s studio.
