DESCRIPTION:

Awesome Bubblegum Pink to Salmon Pink Zambian Tourmaline SELECT Faceting Rough Lot. This lot is entirely composed of water-worn nodules with the most breathtaking shades of Pink and truly has to be seen to be fully appreciated. Many if not most of the stones are practically preformed for Rounds, Shields and Ovals.

As the pictures indicate, many of the stones do have a thin rind on the exterior that is generally Green in color. The rind in most if not all stones should facet out relatively easily during normal faceting. This material is running roughly 90%+ Top Facet Grade with the bulk of the material being eye-clean.

Please note that most of the stones in this lot will cut eye-clean or better with the bulk being able to facet 10x clean. We have a limited amount of this material available. We don't plan to stock or purchase any additional Tourmaline for the near future from Zambia so pick some of this up before it is all gone!!

COOL FACTS:
  1. Zambia has become infamous for its "Parti-Colored" Tourmalines that were produced in volume though the mid to late 1990's. Production has unfortunately been very sporadic as of the last few years with demand far exceeding availability.
