DESCRIPTION:

Awesome Bubblegum Pink to Neon Bluish Green Nigerian Tourmaline Top SELECT Faceting Rough Lot. Practically every stone in here has been hand selected as a cutter with the bulk of these stones being crystal sections and nodules!

Most of the stones in this parcel are practically preformed for high weight returns and we are confident at our price there is no way you can afford to let this go by. 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 don't actively stock or purchase Nigerian Rough like we once did due to increasing prices and lack of consistent grading standards. We have a limited amount of this on hand so pick this up before it is gone!!

COOL FACTS:
  1. Nigeria has steadily risen to be a powerhouse country for Tourmaline production and is now set to eclipse many traditional sources in sheer volume of material. Overall 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.
