This beautiful Bi-color Tourmaline from Brazil is an excellent example of the unique nature of Tourmaline. Multi-color gemstones are something remarkable to see in hand that a stone can naturally be multiple colors at the same time. This is caused by the chemistry of the chromophores inside the Tourmaline and the growth of the crystals. This stone displays bright pink and bright blue colors separated by a pure white section! This gem is fantastic and would be a terrific addition to any gem collection. Multi-color gemstones are incredibly desirable for jewelry as well. I love Tourmaline in particular, but this stone is quite a beautiful gem. Enjoy!
