Item Description

This stone might possibly be a Uvite, as I've seen Uvites this color from Mozambique, but I'm leaving it as simply Tourmaline for now. With that said, it is definitely an unusual color of Tourmaline nonetheless. The stone has a deep orange-golden hue with a wonderful "Round Brilliant" cut. The stone is only very very slightly included, which is great for the material. Tourmalines are classified as a Type-3 gemstone which means that stones typically always have inclusions of some kind and are accepted by dealers and collectors. I haven't seen many Tourmalines this color from any locality, and it would definitely round out a Tourmaline gem suite to show off the various colors of these stones.
