2.68 Ct. Tourmaline from Ceylon (Sri Lanka)

There are stones that whisper and stones that sing, and this luminous pink tourmaline from Ceylon Sri Lanka sings like a lover under moonlight, delicate and unforgettable. Weighing a graceful 2.68 carats, its transparent body catches the eye and the heart, while its radiant cut scatters soft ribbons of light across every facet. The proportions, 13.81 x 6.74 x 4.03 mm, give it an elegant, elongated silhouette that is both modern and timeless, a fancy shape that reads as refined poetry on the finger or as a quiet amulet at the throat. With a clarity grade of very very slightly included evaluated at eye level, this gem holds an honest, natural purity, a testament to earth born beauty, and its excellent polish adds a satin sheen that makes each movement feel like a sigh. The color leans toward a very light pink, a translucent blush that leans toward the playful and the intimate rather than toward the ornate, a hue that invites skin to reflect and soften rather than compete.

For those dreaming of custom creations, the dimensions and shape of this tourmaline are a jeweler’s dream in miniature, an invitation to design that balances presence with poise. Its length and slender width are ideal for settings that elongate the hand, such as east west mounts and horizontal bezels that whisper of secret gardens and quiet promises. It sits beautifully in open prong settings where light can pass and the radiant cut can breathe, and it becomes poetry when framed by a halo of tiny diamonds or warm rose gold, where the very light color intensity allows complementary metals and accents to sing without overwhelming. The depth at 4.03 mm gives enough pavilion for a secure bezel or for hidden claws that cradle the gem without hiding its heart, making it superb for rings intended to be worn daily, pendants meant to rest close to the skin, or bespoke earrings that sway with conversation.

Beyond aesthetics, the stone’s natural origin and treatment profile make it a particularly alluring choice for sentimental commissions. This tourmaline is untreated, no enhancement, a true natural romance, a keepsake that carries provenance and honesty in equal measure. For lovers who prefer stones that tell stories rather than histories of human intervention, the Ceylon Sri Lanka origin adds a layer of mystique and romance, conjuring tea shaded hills and monsoon whispers where color and clarity were formed over time. The very very slightly included clarity speaks to authenticity, tiny inclusions that are like freckles or small constellations, minor imperfections that make a jewel unique, and that, when set by an expert hand, will sit largely invisible to the eye but undeniable to the soul.
