Dear creators and gemstone enthusiasts,
We are pleased to share with you the wonders of the kaleidoscopic Tourmaline. You are all familiar with the Tourmaline family: fascinating in many ways, they impress us with their extraordinary color palette. The "Paraiba," "Rubellite," and "Indigolite" varieties are the most well-known, but there are other hidden and mysterious treasures within this family.
In this month's GemStory®, we would like to introduce a variety with unique features: the Multicolored Tourmaline, also known as "Watermelon" in the market.
This gemstone displays multiple colors within a single crystal. The combinations that it forms can continuously astonish. From a mineralogical perspective, this exceptionally rare phenomenon is the result of changes in pressure or temperature during the crystal's formation, a process that can span hundreds of thousands to millions of years.
The result? The Tourmaline must be seen and felt to be truly appreciated. Tourmaline gemstones exhibit color variations ranging from pink to blue, green to white, blue to red, copper to champagne, and beyond. These colors can be subtle or bold, pastel or intense. Their common feature? A renewed sense of wonder and fascination every time you wear the gemstone.
Discovered in the 16th century in Brazil during Portuguese conquests, explorers were immediately captivated by this stunning find. Today, a few rare locations still yield high-quality crystals, primarily in Brazil, Mozambique, and Pakistan.
One thing is certain: after cutting and polishing, each gemstone possesses an absolutely unique character that will captivate an audience that values originality, rarity, and exclusivity.
