    Description

    This is a lovely pastel peachy/pink tourmaline gemstone. It measures 8.1mm X 6.2mm and is 4.3mm deep. It will fit into an 8X6 setting. It weighs about 1.40cts. It is nicely cut in an oval shape. No inclusions are noticeable to the naked eye. Under 10X magnifiction you will find very slight inclusions as common in tourmaline. I am going to guess that this stone from Mozambique is not treated since it is pastel pink. Usually if pink tourmaline is heated, it is to make it a darker tone of pink, but since this stone is a pastel color it probably is its natural shade - but this is my guess. Tourmalines have become more expensive over the years. If I was making it into a ring I would place little diamonds around the stone to highlight the soft peach tones. To me, the color resembles Morganite!
    I have decided to sell some gemstones that at one time I had the intention to use, but never got around to it. Gemstones are  hard to photograph, so sometimes I use a zoom lens on my camera to show clarity and details, but keep in mind, the stones are much smaller than the photos appear so please pay close attention to the dimensions. The colors might look a little different on different monitors so double check my description for color. I always say the weight is "about" a certain amount of carats because I realize that not all weight scales weigh in exactly the same and can be off by a tiny fraction up or down, but all in all my weight calculations are fairly accurate. Although I call the stone pre-owned because I owned it a long time, it is never used condition and has been stored carefully.
    Please note I am not a gem dealer, although I probably have more knowledge about stones than most people since I have been collecting stones my entire life and studied color stones with the GIA. I'm just selling a few pieces I that never had the opportunity to use, and I'd like to see them go to someone who will enjoy and use them. I am not a store so I do not accept returns, as my goal is to thin out my collections, so please be sure you really love this gemstone before you buy it. To put your mind at ease about "no returns", if you find that any information about the materials in this item are not as described, which more than likely will not happen since I take lots of time in describing my pieces, I might consider a return, but I do not except returns if you have buyer's regret or if something doesn't fit, so please read the description carefully and feel free to ask any questions you might have before you bid or buy.
    I only accept Paypal payments so please be sure you have a valid Paypal address and account before you bid or buy. All of my listings ship free of charge in the USA. I do not sell overseas at this time. Note that now eBay is required to charge taxes so I am guessing that taxes will be added to this purchase via eBay. Shipping is free of charge.
    Thank you for checking out my listing and happy eBay shopping! Stay safe!
