2.48 Ct. Tourmaline from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

This striking, transparent 2.48 carat pink tourmaline presents an elegant radiant shape with precise dimensions of 11.32 by 6.93 by 4.62 millimeters, a cut selected to maximize light return and balance a longer profile with generous table proportions. Graded as very very slightly included when evaluated at eye level, the stone reads as eye clean to most observers while retaining natural internal characteristics that confirm its authenticity. The color shows a medium intensity pink that is neither pastel nor overly saturated, offering a versatile tone that flatters a wide range of metals and skin tones. The gem has an excellent polish and has not undergone any enhancements, a factor that enhances its appeal to discerning collectors and engagement ring buyers who prioritize natural, untreated material. Origin Ceylon Sri Lanka lends provenance to the piece, and the combination of size, clarity, and untreated status makes this an unusually strong example of Sri Lankan pink tourmaline in this weight category.

As an engagement option this tourmaline represents a refined alternative to traditional center stones, combining romantic color with practical wearability. Tourmaline has a hardness that supports everyday wear with appropriate care, and the radiant cut is particularly well suited to ring settings because it spreads light across its facets and diminishes the appearance of minor inclusions. For daily durability we recommend secure prong work or a partial bezel to protect the corners and edges, and metal choices such as rose gold to complement the pink tone, or platinum and white gold for a cooler contrast depending on personal style. From an investment and aesthetic perspective, the unenhanced origin from Ceylon Sri Lanka, the eye level clarity, and the excellent polish all contribute to a gem that appeals to educated buyers seeking authenticity, beauty, and longevity. The Natural Gemstone Company stands behind the sourcing and description of this stone, and we can provide additional imagery and ring design recommendations to help integrate this pink tourmaline into a bespoke engagement setting that will be cherished for a lifetime.
