The exquisite red tourmaline offered by The Natural Gemstone Company is a masterful example of geometric faceting that enhances its remarkable optical properties. This 1.24 carat gem, cut into a precise oval shape with dimensions measuring 10.10 x 5.51 x 3.38 mm, showcases a mixed brilliant cut that expertly combines step cuts on the pavilion with brilliant cuts on the crown. This faceting style serves to maximize the play of light within the stone, creating a captivating display of brilliance and fire that is sure to delight the discerning eye of a knowledgeable gem enthusiast.
Each facet of this tourmaline has been meticulously crafted to optimize the internal reflection and refraction of light, ensuring that every angle presents a scintillating view. The sophisticated interplay between the crown and pavilion facets allows for a breathtaking dispersion of light, resulting in a luminous symphony of sparkles that are amplified by the stone's inherent properties. The precision of the cutting is such that the gem appears to dance with an ethereal light, a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail that define our offerings at The Natural Gemstone Company.
The clarity of this tourmaline is graded as very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, an impressive indicator of its superior visual quality. The minute inclusions present are virtually undetectable to the naked eye and do not obscure the transparency or diminish the intensity of the color. This inherent clarity, combined with an intense color intensity, amplifies the beauty of the gemstone. The stone radiates a vibrant red hue that is deeply saturated and consistent throughout the gem, symbolizing not only the rarity of such a find but also the intense emotions traditionally attributed to red tourmaline.
Originating from the renowned gemstone deposits of Mozambique, this tourmaline benefits from the region's reputation for producing exceptionally vivid and high-quality stones. Mozambique has long been celebrated for its contributions to the gemstone industry, particularly for tourmalines that are prized for their unique colors and exceptional clarity. Our commitment at The Natural Gemstone Company is to source only the finest gems, and this particular specimen embodies the region's esteemed legacy in gemstone production. Its authenticity and origin add an additional layer of value and desirability, marking it as a distinguished choice for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
The excellent polish of the tourmaline further elevates its status as a gemstone of distinction. A meticulous polishing process ensures that each facet achieves a smooth and reflective surface, minimizing any loss of light and enhancing the stone's overall visual appeal. This painstaking attention to detail is a hallmark of expert craftsmanship, one that is deeply appreciated by gem enthusiasts who seek out refined pieces of exceptional quality. At The Natural Gemstone Company, we take pride in offering gemstones that are not only visually stunning but also represent the pinnacle of artisanal excellence in every facet.
