There is a quiet dignity in stones that have lived their story in the earth before ever meeting the hand that sets them, and this pink tourmaline from Mozambique carries that dignity with graceful restraint. We present a transparent 2.99 carat cushion shaped tourmaline, a gem whose soft, vintage silhouette reads like a page from the annals of classic jewelry. The proportions are thoughtfully held at 7.72 by 7.69 by 6.04 millimeters, a size that balances presence and refinement, inviting both intimate wear and prominent mounting. Cut in a sugar loaf style, the gem wears a gentle dome with subtly faceted planes that catch the light in a manner at once old world and fresh, a cut that evokes traditional lapidary techniques while flattering the stone s natural pink tone. Sourced from Mozambique, a region celebrated for tourmaline of honest character, this gem arrives to you with no enhancement, a wholly natural expression of color and form that The Natural Gemstone Company is proud to offer.
The color of this piece is a light pink, a hue that reads as romantic and restrained rather than overtly flashy, and the light color intensity allows the gem to harmonize beautifully with a range of metals and design languages. Transparency is a defining quality here, and under the sugar loaf cut it gives the gem a soft inner glow that shifts as the stone moves. The clarity is graded slightly included when evaluated at eye level, and these gentle inclusions are part of the stone s lineage, evidence of its growth in the depths of Mozambican pegmatites. Far from detracting, they lend the gem personality and provenance, and they serve as tiny signatures that assure the collector of the gem s natural, untreated state. The polish is excellent, a mirror like finish that elevates the sugar loaf form and intensifies the subtle play of light within the gem, giving it a serene, luminous presence.
To wear a tourmaline like this is to participate in a tradition that stretches back centuries, when colored gems were treasured not only for their beauty but for their stories and symbolism. Tourmaline has long been prized for its wide range of colors and its association with grounding and heartfelt expression, and pink varieties have often been linked to love, compassion, and timeless elegance. The cushion shape is itself a classic, a silhouette favored in many eras for its ability to feel both regal and wearable, and the sugar loaf cut is an echo of earlier lapidary arts where domed forms were celebrated for their soft radiance. This gem is well suited to a range of settings from a solitary ring that lets the stone speak quietly, to a pendant that carries its light close to the heart, to an heirloom brooch reimagined with modern sensibility. Its unenhanced nature makes it an enduring choice for those who value authenticity and longevity in their jewelry collections.
At The Natural Gemstone Company we understand that a gem is more than its measurements, and yet the details matter. This tourmaline s 2.99 carat weight, its 7.72 by 7.69 by 6.04 millimeter dimensions, its sugar loaf cushion cut, its slightly included clarity at eye level, its light color intensity, its excellent polish, its transparent clarity, and its completely natural, no enhancement origin in Mozambique are the facts that anchor its story.
