Teal Blue Transparent Indicolite Tourmaline 3.36 CT Emerald Cut | Mozambique
A saturated teal blue fills this 3.36 carat tourmaline. The elongated emerald cut is precise with even corners, a bright open table and crisp step facets that return orderly flashes along the length of the stone. Color holds steady from end to end and shows the expected pleochroism of elbaite, reading deep blue in one direction and slightly more green when the stone is turned. Transparency is high and the luster is clean and vitreous. Under magnification only the faintest internal features are seen, so the face reads bright and refined.
The gem comes from Mozambique’s pegmatite fields, a modern source noted for fine blue tourmaline known in the trade as indicolite. Iron in the crystal lattice is the primary chromophore responsible for the blue hue and tourmaline’s strong directional absorption reinforces the depth of color. Mining here is small scale and production varies with access and weather, so supply is naturally uneven. Large crystals that cut into well balanced stones above three carats with strong teal blue and very high clarity are limited, which is why clean Mozambican indicolite in this size range is considered scarce.
Fully certified for authenticity and quality, comes with a sensory experience that you won't forget. Don't miss your chance to own this stunning piece of earth wonder.
