Rubellite Tourmaline from Ibadan, Nigeria
No. 1008: Rhomboid Step Fan Cut, 2.63 ct., SI1, 13.2 x 6.2 x 4.7 mm, $131.50. Faceted by Robert Drummond
Shown above is another Nigerian tourmaline of unusual color; a rubellite of rusty-red color. I chose an unusual facet design to match the odd color. This gem is expertly crafted, the facet symmetry, meetpoints, and polish are all very good. This gem would look intriguing in a custom pendant, pin, or ring design.
This gemstone has not been treated.
