DESCRIPTION:

Awesome Magenta to Peachy Pink Nigerian Tourmaline Faceting Rough Lot. This is ALL SELECT material! Practically every stone in here has been hand selected as a cutter to cut Eye-clean or better with relative ease! Most of the stones are nicely shaped for high weight returns and we are confident you will get some spectacular finished gems from the parcel. This is NOT small material with the average size running roughly 6+ CARATS! We have a limited amount of this on hand so pick this up before it is gone!!

COOL FACTS:
  1. Nigerian material, like most African material, has the brownish overtones, darker colors and lacks the vibrancy and life that Afghan (and some Namibian and Nigerian) Tourmaline is known for; however, many Nigerian and African stones can cut beautiful finished gems that rival Afghan material. From my experience I don't think quality is even questionable as I still haven't seen any Tourmaline Floor me like the Best Afghani material in its natural crystal form! Afghan Tourmaline can cost an arm and a leg and Nigerian material is a great affordable substitute for everyone to have fun faceting some Tourmaline.
