Paraiba Tourmaline is one of the rarest and most mesmerizing gemstones in the world, known for its neon-blue to green hues.
But not all Paraiba Tourmalines are the same!
Here's a simple guide to spotting a high-quality stone:
Color: Look for a vibrant, electric blue or greenish-blue shade.
Glow: Natural Paraiba has an inner "glow" because of copper content.
Clarity: Some inclusions are normal, but the stone should still appear lively and bright.
Origin: Brazilian Paraibas are the rarest, but Mozambique and Nigeria also offer beautiful gems.
Certification: Always ask for a gemstone certificate from trusted labs like GIA, GRS, AIG, ICA or AIGS.
