Product Description
We love these unique tourmalines! A parti-color tourmaline forms when the chemical composition of the hydrothermal fluid changes during crystal growth, causing different colors to develop in the same crystal, often appearing as distinct zones or bands of color within the stone like this. Inclusions in tourmalines are natural imperfections, primarily fluid-filled tubes, liquid and gas bubbles, mineral crystals, and hollow tubes, which are trapped during the gem's formation. While sometimes seen as flaws, inclusions also add to a gem's unique character.
This pendant is 14kt Rose gold & sterling silver. It is composed from a gold heart shape knot (P31) above an 38.32ct (26x18mm) rectangle cushion Parti-Color Tourmaline cabochon (that goes from a medium green to a deep rose pink) in a hand built silver bezel. It is accented at the bottom with a textured silver bib with gold curls and a 6mm Light Green Tourmaline cabochon in a gold bezel. The top is gold and a silver jump ring connects to an 18" sterling chain. Measures 2 1/2" x 3/4".
