Its origins in Ceylon impart a unique signature hue that subtly characterizes the soil of its homeland.

The Natural Gemstone Company takes great pride in the careful crafting and exceptional quality that defines each gemstone that evolves under our watchful eye. The tourmaline's modified brilliant cut coupled with its superb clarity, very slightly included when judged from eye level, brings depth to any light it encounters, evoking images of soft glowing embers.
