2.33 Ct. Tourmaline from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

Across centuries and continents, certain gemstones have carried meaning like family heirlooms, symbols of devotion passed from generation to generation, and the pink tourmaline in this offering is one such stone. Hailing from the storied soils of Ceylon Sri Lanka, a land whose gem history is as old as maritime trade itself, this transparent fancy shape pink tourmaline evokes a sense of antiquity and enduring romance. The gemmaker who first cut this piece honored classical ideals of proportion and light when choosing a mixed brilliant cut, a shape that reflects both historic lapidary art and modern brilliance. For couples who seek an engagement ring that speaks of legacy rather than trend, this gem offers a quiet proclamation of affection, a jewel whose color and clarity will tell a love story for decades to come.

Measured with precision and finished with care, this pink tourmaline weighs 2.33 carats and measures 9.80 x 7.19 x 5.42 mm, dimensions that make it ideal for a centre stone that feels present but never imposing. The mixed brilliant cut multiplies facets in a way that draws the eye into the stone and then returns it to the surface in a glittering dance, while the excellent polish ensures every facet edge is crisp and lively. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity registers as very very slightly included, a grade that preserves the gem's natural character while maintaining a clean visual face for everyday wear. The color intensity is intense, a lush pink that spans rose to slightly deeper magenta tones as the gem turns in light, and because this tourmaline is completely natural with no enhancement, its hue is an honest expression of geological fortune. Origin Ceylon Sri Lanka is not only a mark of provenance, it connects this gem to a lineage of celebrated stones extracted and traded in the island nation for centuries.

When fashioned into an engagement ring, this tourmaline becomes more than ornament, it becomes a statement about priorities and permanence. Pink has long been associated with tenderness, empathy, and lasting affection, and a pink tourmaline of this quality reads as both romantic and sophisticated. The 2.33 carat weight sits comfortably on a variety of finger sizes, lending itself to settings that range from classic four prong solitaires that emphasize the stone s lift and sparkle, to vintage inspired halos and low profile bezels that protect the girdle and underscore the gem s timeless silhouette. Tourmaline is a gem that balances beauty with resilience, suitable for daily wear when set securely and cared for thoughtfully.
