Tourmaline
A fantastic 3.71-carat Paraiba tourmaline is featured in this exquisite Tiffany & Co. platinum ring. Exhibiting the absolutely perfect intense turquoise blue hue synonymous with a Brazilian origin, this natural, oval-shaped and fancy brilliant-cut gem is joined by approximately 1.00 carat of shimmering diamonds. Characterized by their electric-blue color, this particular gemstone distinctive with its incredibly rare "neon" characteristics. Normally, Paraiba tourmalines are quite small. To find one of this size, color and clarity is almost unheard of. Certified by the American Gem Trade Association.
Only first discovered in Brazil in 1989, the Paraiba tourmaline is one of the world's rarest and most exciting gemstones. Paraiba tourmalines are now found in two places in the world: Brazil and Africa. The gems of Brazil, by far, possess the greatest fire and brilliance compared to the African variety, which tends to be more green and muted. The gems owe their spectacular coloring to the presence of copper in the stone. Due to the specific mineral composition of the Brazilian mine, nature has created a gemstone that stands out among all others, and is considered even more rare than diamonds.
The inner band is marked "Tiffany & Co."
