18ct White Gold Paraiba & Diamond Pendant + Chain P 0.75 D 0.17
Metal: | White Gold |
Gemstone: | Paraiba |
Item: | Pendant |
Unknown just four decades ago, Paraiba blue tourmaline has an alluring swimming-pool glow and has become one of the most sought-after gems on the planet. It is extremely rare and is found only in the Paraiba district of Brazil (where it gets its name) and more recently in the gem-bearing rocks of northern Mozambique. Not all blue tourmaline is Paraiba, only the deep green-blue luminescent variety can be called true Paraiba.
The fabulous pear-shaped example in this necklace weighs three quarters of a carat with the whole pendant itself measuring 15mm high by 8mm wide. An 18ct white gold 17 inch diamond-cut cable chain is included.
