Tourmaline from Ibadan, Nigeria

No. 643: Cut Corner Barion Square Cut, 3.48 ct., 8.5 x 8.5 x 6.8 mm, VVS, $174.00 Faceted by R. Drummond Sold

The Barion Square Cut is a design by Sid Ward; an expert semiprofessional faceter. The cut delivers excellent light return and scintillation across the entire crown of the gemstone. This particular stone is of very fine clarity and is an unusual slightly rosy gray color. The faceting is exceptional. This gem would make an attractive centerpiece in a woman's pendant or large ring, and would work equally well in a man's ring (occasional use only).
