Natural Brazilian Paraiba tourmaline
05 March 2024
Description

This is very nice gemstone. The color is a top-notch Neon blue, which is considered the pinnacle among Paraiba tourmaline gemstone. It's a very precious and rare natural Brazilian Paraiba, and Brazilian Paraiba stones weighing over 1 carat are extremely rare and hard to come by, so around 3.98ct is a very large size. The shoulder of pear stone got lightly chipped. It can be confirmed through photos. When you enter the serial number written on the certificate into the certificate website, you can see videos and information about my stone My Brazilian Paraiba, exceeding 1 carat, is so rare that there is limited information about it. I wanted to find a loose gemstone similar to mine, so I contacted a global Paraiba specialized company, providing them with specifications and photos of my gemstone, requesting them to find the most similar loose gemstone available. After thorough research by their manager, I received a recommendation for the most similar gemstone. Please refer to it. I am eager to sell before recutting. To achieve this, the appraisal from your company is crucial. Also, I would like to know the maximum weight after recutting. I would be truly grateful. The Paraiba seen at the following address is the one recommended as most similar to mine. I eagerly await good news from you. https://www.gempundit.com/tourmaline-gp135698 Thank you nami
