2.23 Ct. Orangish Brown Tourmaline from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This stunning transparent 2.23 carat pear shape orangish brown tourmaline measures 10.63 by 7.04 by 4.92 mm, and is faceted in a mixed brilliant cut that maximizes fire and scintillation. The gem displays intense color intensity and an excellent polish, and it is offered with no enhancement from its origin in Ceylon Sri Lanka. Clarity is graded slightly included at eye level, which in practical terms means the stone reads clean and lively in hand while retaining natural character that collectors and connoisseurs prize. The combination of a substantial carat weight, elongated pear outline, and superior cutting makes this tourmaline a rare and practical choice for a true statement piece.

Compared with many stones on the market this tourmaline delivers exceptional value. At 2.23 carats and over ten millimeters in length it presents larger face up presence than the average tourmaline in this color range, so it commands attention without the premium pricing often demanded for comparable sapphire or topaz sizes. The mixed brilliant cut produces more scintillation and dynamic light return than common step cuts, so it sparkles like higher priced gemstones but remains distinctly tourmaline in character. Importantly this gem is unenhanced, a distinction that enhances both desirability and long term value when compared to many heat treated or filled stones that dominate commercial supply. The excellent polish and well balanced proportions make setting straightforward for jewelers, allowing the cutter s art to translate directly into wearable brilliance.

For designers and private clients seeking a standout center stone this pear shaped orangish brown tourmaline is ideal. The warm hue flatters a wide range of metals and skin tones and the length to width ratio provides elegant vertical presence for rings or a dramatic drop for pendants. Slight natural inclusions give the gem personality under loupe inspection while remaining invisible in everyday wear, so the gem reads as bold and luxurious at a glance. If you want a statement piece that combines uncommon size, vibrant natural color, and honest unenhanced provenance consider this stone from The Natural Gemstone Company.
