THIS IS A GENUINE EARTH MINED tourmaline. Appraisal by a master valuer ( at time of this listing I am using Steven Knight GG, R.M.V., CJA-CAP) for a retail replacement value of $2,325.Canadian. Feel free to download a copy of the appraisal unsigned and unsealed. If you want a signed ,sealed copy for insurance purposes, made out in your name, as I have partially paid for the appraisal already, I can provide for an additional $20. Master valuers are considered THE experts on coloured gems, and their appraisals are accepted by insurance companies as genuine retail replacement value.

Even smaller pictures, while more accurately showing how the gem looks to the naked eye, still show the gem MUCH larger than it is of course.... if you are not sure how big this is , make certain you check on a measure marked in millimeters... the standard for measuring gems.)

Better gems and jewelry items are kept in bank vault for security purposes and retrieving an item can cause a slight shipping delay.

NOTE: Supply and demand rules in true gem buying as in every other human investment.
Each earth mined gem is a unique work of art, unlike the lab produced stones that can be produced in unlimited quantities.

Some people will never understand why people buy an original work of art when they can buy a poster for next to nothing.
Earth mined gems are for those that do. Invest in quality.

Tourmaline is the gem stone for October. Tourmaline comes in many colors, with traces of aluminium, iron, magnesium, sodium, lithium, or potassium providing various shades. It is said to release stress and increase mental alertness.
