2.99 Ct. Cabochon Tourmaline from Mozambique

This Mozambique pink tourmaline is a beautiful semi transparent 2.99 carat cushion shape gem, measuring 7.75 x 7.68 x 6.08 mm, with a sugar loaf cut, a slightly included clarity grade as evaluated at eye level, intense color intensity, excellent polish, and no enhancement. Compared with many commercial pink gems on the market, this piece stands out for its natural saturation and untreated origin, qualities that heat treated or lab enhanced stones cannot genuinely replicate. The sugar loaf profile offers a smooth domed appearance that yields a soft internal glow, which is different from the high brilliance of highly faceted stones. Where synthetics and heavily treated tourmalines may show uniform color but lack internal character, this natural Mozambique specimen displays the subtle inclusions and textural depth that informed buyers associate with authenticity and provenance.

In practical terms this gem represents superior value and distinctiveness. For similar visual intensity buyers often look at pink sapphires or rubellites, which can command much higher prices especially when untreated. This 2.99 carat cushion offers comparable visual impact at a more accessible price point, while retaining the organic charm of natural formation. The slightly included clarity does not detract from wearability, and the excellent polish ensures smooth facets for comfortable setting in rings, pendants, or bespoke pieces. For designers and collectors who prioritize ethical sourcing and natural beauty, this tourmaline from Mozambique is a rare find that balances color, carat weight, and integrity. At The Natural Gemstone Company we highlight each gem accurately and transparently, and this tourmaline exemplifies our inventory in combining eye appealing intense pink, classic cushion proportions, and the confidence of no enhancement. If you are seeking a standout center stone that reads as both luxurious and authentic, this untreated sugar loaf cushion pink tourmaline is an exceptional alternative to more common treated or synthetic options.
