3.72 Ct. Cabochon Tourmaline from Mozambique

Allow me to introduce a truly special piece offered by The Natural Gemstone Company, a transparent bi color tourmaline weighing 3.72 carats, presented in a cushion shape that feels both substantial and graceful. This gem measures 7.95 by 7.92 by 6.74 millimeters, giving it a pleasing presence that works beautifully for a statement ring or an elegant pendant. The cutter chose a sugar loaf cut for this stone, a style that creates soft, rounded facets which interact with light in a way that feels organic and luxurious. The overall color intensity is medium light, which allows the stone to display its color zoning in a delicate and wearable way. As a natural, untreated gem from Mozambique, this tourmaline carries the provenance and character that collectors and designers prize. The transparency of this specimen allows internal features to become part of the gem narrative, and the excellent polish ensures that the surface gleams with a satiny finish, inviting touch and admiration.

The bi color nature of this tourmaline is one of its most appealing traits, where subtle transitions of hue create visual interest without overpowering the design of the finished jewelry. The medium light intensity means the colors read as soft and refined, which makes the gem versatile for both contemporary and vintage inspired settings. Evaluated at eye level, the clarity grade is slightly included, and those natural inclusions are not flaws alone but hallmarks of authenticity, adding internal texture and a story that lab grown or heavily treated stones lack. Because there has been no enhancement, the colors and clarity are exactly as they formed in the earth, which is an important consideration for clients seeking natural gem material. The sugar loaf cut in particular showcases the bi color zoning by producing gentle planes and curves that refract and reflect light differently across the stone, revealing pockets of brightness and subtle shifts in tone as the wearer moves.

From a design and practical standpoint this cushion bi color tourmaline is a dream to work with, offering designers a rare combination of weight and manageable dimensions. At 3.72 carats the stone feels generous on the finger or at the throat, while the 7.95 by 7.92 by 6.74 millimeter size allows for comfortable, secure settings that do not overwhelm the wearer. The sugar loaf cut is often favored for pieces where the gem is meant to be seen from multiple angles, because the soft, domed facets maintain a lively presence without the crisp maintenance demands of faceted step cuts. For metal choices, warm tones such as rose gold or yellow gold will enhance the stone warmness and emphasize rosy and golden undertones, while white metals will lend a more modern contrast and make the cool aspects of the tourmaline stand out. Caring for this gem is straightforward, use warm water, mild soap and a soft brush, avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat and strong chemicals, and have settings checked periodically by a trusted jeweler, especially with natural inclusions present.

This bi color tourmaline from Mozambique offered by The Natural Gemstone Company is an exceptional option for collectors, designers and anyone who appreciates gems with personality and provenance. Its natural state without enhancement, combined with the expert sugar loaf cutting and excellent polish, makes this stone a rare find that will take center stage in bespoke jewelry or elevate a curated jewelry collection. The slightly included clarity gives the gem an honest, lived in beauty, while the medium light color intensity keeps it wearable for day and evening. If you are imagining a unique engagement ring, a signature pendant, or a one off commission, this tourmaline is ready to become the focal point of a memorable design.
