Rare red Tourmaline (Rubellite) from Nigeria. Concave cut masterpiece. 5.68 carats of heaven!

Red tourmaline, or Rubellite, from Ogbomosho, Nigeria is considered to be some of the finest red tourmalines in the world. The deposit was discovered in the late 90s and was completely mined out three years later. This 5.68-carat gem represents some of the finest material found. It is almost completely flawless, which in itself is extremely rare for red or pink tourmaline, and has been expertly cut with concave facets to maximize the flash and brilliance of the gem. This stone, the cutting, and the overall quality of the gem were evaluated a decade ago by a professional gemologist. That report is shown in the photos. If you are a lover of rare gems, don’t let this one-of-a-kind piece it away from you! And don’t miss the matching earring gems cut from the same material by the same cutter. (Rare matched set of Nigerian Rubellite (red Tourmaline) stones for earrings. 7.34 carats total weight of tourmaline heaven!). These are all irreplaceable gems and probably never to be seen again in this quality and size. <{: <(
