Tourmaline from Ibadan, Nigeria

No. 974: Cut Corner Barion Square Cut, 2.00 ct., VS, 7.2 x 7.2 x 5.8 mm, $120.00 Faceted by R. Drummond

Shown above is an attractive rosy-pink tourmaline cut from Nigerian material. The facet design, a cut corner barion square, is by Sid Ward. This cut delivers excellent light return and scintillation. This is an expertly crafted gemstone; the facet meets, symmetry, and polish are all excellent. This gem would look beautiful as the center stone in a pendant, or other piece of jewelry.

Except for the expert faceting, the gem rough for this stone, and the stone itself, have not been enhanced in any way.
