Dark Reddish Purple Tourmaline. Oval Cut. 5.51ct.

Dark Reddish Purple Tourmaline. Oval Cut. 5.51ct.

This gemstone is dark and has some inclusions but when you move it, the purple, pink and red colors go through it and the gem comes alive. I think that this dark tourmaline will be perfect for a men's ring. It's a large tourmaline, with a good cut, proportions, brightness and the behaviour under the light is very good. Don't miss it!.
