2.12 Ct. Cabochon Tourmaline from Mozambique

This 2.12 carat cushion shape pink tourmaline from The Natural Gemstone Company is precisely described by dimensions of 7.31 x 7.23 x 5.03 mm, yielding a depth proportion of approximately 69 percent, a profile that indicates a robust pavilion and a domed crown. The stone has been fashioned in a sugar loaf cut, a hybrid treatment that blends a domed cabochon silhouette with selective facet planes on the crown, producing soft, even light return and a subtle star like faceting pattern at the apex. The cutter has emphasized weight retention and optical balance, aligning pavilion planes to converge near the center, while maintaining a symmetrical cushion outline to enhance wearing stability. The excellent polish across all surfaces ensures clean light transmission and minimal surface diffusion, the transparency is high, and the stone is reported as having no enhancement, an important factor for preservation of natural optical and structural characteristics. Origin is Mozambique, a locality known for producing pink tourmalines with fine clarity and clean color distribution.

At an eye level clarity grade of very slightly included, the tourmaline exhibits minor, well healed internal features that do not materially interfere with transparency or light performance when set, these inclusions are consistent with natural growth and were evaluated under standard viewing conditions. Color registers as light pink with light intensity, a tone that is delicate and even, and the sugar loaf facet treatment harmonizes with this color, softening strong contrast and creating a gentle play of light rather than vivid flash, this makes the gem particularly suited to pieces that favor subtlety, such as open bezel work, low profile prong settings, or as a complementary center for multi stone compositions. The stone may show faint pleochroic tendencies typical of tourmaline species, so orientation during setting will influence the perceived hue and saturation. From a craftsmanship perspective, the cutter has prioritized symmetry, polish, and retention of natural material, delivering a transparent, well finished cushion that will appeal to connoisseurs who value provenance, untreated material, and precise cutting technique, for further technical details or viewing arrangements please contact The Natural Gemstone Company.
