2.70 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Tourmaline pair from Brazil

Tourmaline is a gemstone that has grown in popularity over recent years, particularly among collectors and jewelry enthusiasts who appreciate its vast color range and its unique magnetic and electric properties. It is one of the few gemstones that can exhibit a wide spectrum of colors, including pink, green, blue, and watermelon (pink with a green rind), making it a versatile choice for various jewelry designs.
This pair of tourmalines is an exquisite example of the gemstone's distinct appeal. As pear-shaped stones, they offer an elegant and timeless look that is often sought after for fine jewelry. Their remarkable greenish-blue hue is striking and distinctive, making these gems a center of attention in any piece of jewelry. The mixed brilliant cut enhances their natural brilliance and sparkle, while the exceptional clarity, graded as eye-clean, ensures that they look pristine to the naked eye, free from visible inclusions or blemishes.
Weighing at 1.17 carats and 1.53 carats respectively, these moderate-sized tourmalines present an ideal balance between presence and subtlety when worn as earrings. Their exact dimensions, 18.91 x 3.65 x 2.99 mm for the slightly lighter one and 18.87 x 3.45 x 2.44 mm for the heavier, contribute to their pear-shaped appeal, providing a sense of symmetry and grace. The quality of the polish contributes to their overall glow, further emphasizing their intense color intensity—a testament to the high level of craftsmanship.
Tourmalines from Brazil are highly reputed, often considered some of the finest specimens in the world, thanks to the rich deposits found within the country’s varied geography. The Brazilian heritage of these tourmalines adds to their desirability and value.
Now, let’s describe a pair of intricately designed earrings made with these tourmalines:
Picture a pair of custom-designed earrings, each featuring one of these spectacular greenish-blue tourmalines. The stones are meticulously set in a handcrafted 18-karat white gold frame that gently hugs the contours of the pear-shape. Around the tourmalines is a delicate halo of micro-pavé diamonds that highlight the primary stones' color and promote an additional layer of sparkle.
What makes these earrings truly stand apart is the attention to detail in their craftsmanship. The setting is designed to allow maximum light to enter the tourmalines, enhancing their color and brilliance when worn. The back of the setting is openwork, a feature that not only reduces the piece's weight for comfortable wearing but also showcases a complex pattern that is just as beautiful as the front.
The earrings are equipped with secure and comfortable lever-back clasps, ensuring that these precious gems remain safely attached while providing ease when putting them on and taking them off. The overall aesthetic is one of elegance and sophistication, but with a modern twist, pairing the classic allure of tourmaline with a fresh, vibrant color palette and contemporary setting. These earrings are perfect for an individual looking to add a touch of luxury and refined taste to their fine jewelry collection.
