1.18 Ct. Tourmaline from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Imagine discovering a gem that seems to hold a secret sunrise within its facets, a stone that invites a hush of wonder every time it catches the light. This is that moment, presented in a transparent 1.18 carat emerald cut brownish green tourmaline from historic Ceylon Sri Lanka, a gem whose medium intense color evokes the warmth of an early morning forest and the quiet strength of aged wood. The elongated emerald cut gives this tourmaline a timeless silhouette, measuring 7.73 x 4.61 x 4.25 millimeters, proportions that speak of elegance and balance. With a clarity grade of very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, each tiny internal signature only amplifies the gem character, reminding the wearer that true beauty is natural, authentic, and unique. No enhancement has been applied, so what you see is the honest generosity of nature polished to perfection. The excellent polish of this stone creates a luminous skin that seems to glow from within, offering a tactile smoothness and visual purity that is rare and deeply satisfying.

The exceptional emerald cut of this tourmaline is its heart and its hero, a cut that celebrates geometry and light with dignified restraint. The long step facets produce a hall of mirrors effect, a refined play of light and dark that reveals the gem depth by depth, facet by facet. This precise cutting enhances the stone brilliance, turning each movement of the hand into a private performance of flashes and calm, a jewel that does not shout but rather commands attention with quiet confidence. The clarity and transparency allow light to travel through the gem and reflect back in rich brownish green tones, creating a depth that feels almost three dimensional. Mounted as a solitaire ring the stone becomes an intimate centerpiece, a focal point that elevates any setting, and when paired with warm yellow gold the brownish green warmth sings, while in cool white metals the gem takes on a modern, editorial glow. For collectors and dreamers alike, this tourmaline is a refined statement piece, one that will anchor a curated collection and become the jewel that future pieces seem to orbit around.
