ELEGANT NATURAL GREEN TOURMALINE (3.89 CT) - BLUISH GREEN "TEARDROP ELEGANCE"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

■ THE STONE:
Graceful aquatic beauty in classic teardrop form | Elegant 3.89 carats with captivating bluish green hues | Exceptional transparency and brilliant luster | Perfect elongated pear proportions for pendants and earrings | Oceanic sophistication | Refreshing coastal elegance

■ ORIGIN & HISTORY:
Green tourmaline has adorned fine jewelry for centuries, celebrated for verdant beauty rivaling emeralds. This bluish green variety blends fresh green with cool blue undertones—a highly desirable color evoking tropical waters. Brazilian specimens from legendary Minas Gerais are renowned worldwide for exceptional transparency and color saturation.

■ MARKET INSIGHT:
At 3.89 carats with graceful pear proportions (19.64 x 6.38 mm), this offers exceptional versatility for elegant jewelry. The timeless teardrop shape is universally flattering—perfect for statement pendants, drop earrings, or vintage-inspired designs. Bluish green tourmalines in pear cuts are increasingly sought by designers appreciating both elegance and unique color.

■ METAPHYSICAL PROPERTIES:
Known as the "Stone of Compassion," opening the heart chakra to attract abundance, emotional healing, and vitality. Promotes gratitude, connection with nature, harmonious relationships. Treasured worldwide by anyone seeking prosperity, growth, balanced energy, and heart-centered living.

■ WHY THIS GREEN TOURMALINE STANDS OUT:
✓ Elegant Pear Cut - Timeless teardrop shape universally flattering
✓ Rare Bluish Green - Cool aquatic tones highly desirable
✓ Perfect Proportions - Elongated shape ideal for pendants and earrings
✓ Exceptional Clarity - Outstanding transparency with brilliant luster
✓ Versatile Size - 3.89 cts perfect for statement or paired jewelry
✓ Oceanic Appeal - Refreshing blue-green combination
✓ ICA Certified - Full gemological authentication

Comments:
-----------
Tourmaline is commonly heated or irradiated to improve or change the color. Color authenticity is currently undeterminable (Per ICA standards; natural bluish green enhances appeal).

Exceptional transparency with captivating bluish green color in elegant pear shape—ideal for statement pendants, drop earrings, or vintage-inspired designs. With 7-7.5 hardness, green tourmaline offers excellent durability for everyday luxury wear.

Design Versatility: The pear cut is one of the most elegant and timeless shapes in jewelry design, perfect for showcasing this gem's oceanic color. The elongated proportions (19.64 x 6.38 mm) create graceful visual flow in pendants or dramatic presence in earrings.

Market Context: Bluish green tourmalines offer the aquatic appeal of more expensive aquamarines and Paraiba tourmalines at accessible pricing, making them smart choices for designers and collectors seeking oceanic beauty with excellent durability.

Clarification on "See Comments" treatment disclosure:
------------------------------------------------------
When a certificate states "See Comments" under treatments, this indicates that laboratory testing could not conclusively determine whether the gemstone has been treated. This is standard for many gemstone types, including tourmaline and others, where distinguishing natural color from potential heating or irradiation is scientifically challenging with current gemological methods.

This does NOT mean the stone is treated; rather, it reflects the limitations of available testing technology. The comments section will explain the lab's findings in detail, and you should interpret this conservatively. We sell all such stones with full disclosure and at competitive prices reflecting current market standards.
