Tourmaline
The name “Tourmaline” is
derived from the
Singhalese expression
“tura mali” which means
“mixed colored stones”.
Tourmalines exhibit a
unique spectrum of
colors which is second
to none in gemstone
kingdom.
It’s nearly universal
popularity is based on the above quality
and also are of acceptable quality and
affordable to most buyers. Tourmaline
occurs in all colors especially red,
green and multicolor. It has been
scientifically proven that Tourmaline is
not a single mineral, but a group of
minerals related in physical and
chemical properties.
Tourmalines are mined in
many places in the
world. There are
important occurrences in
Brazil, Sri Lanka
Nigeria, Zimbabwe,
Kenya,
Aquamarine is a
fascinatingly beautiful
gemstone. Its name is
derived from the Latin
aqua (water) and mare
(sea). It is said that
its strengths are
developed to their best
advantage when it is
placed in water which is
bathed in sunlight.
There is hardly any
other gemstone in modern
jewelry design which is
refined in such a
variety of ways as
aquamarine. Whether it
is fashioned as a clear,
transparent gem in the
classical step cut, or
creatively cut in a more
modern design, it is
always fascinatingly
beautiful. Uncut too, or
with many inclusions
which can be brought
into play by the
designer in the way in
which the stone is cut,
it can be refined to
produce the most
beautiful creations.
The name
emerald
comes
from the
Greek
smaragdos
via the
Old
French
esmeralde,
and
really
just
means
'green
gemstone'.
Innumerable
fantastic
stories
have
grown up
around
this
magnificent
gem.
The very intense and
powerful green color of
emerald is uncommon
among gemstones. This
intense green color is
caused by small amount
of chromium and vanadium
impurities in the stone.
Emerald is brittle and
often contains flaws
otherwise known as
inclusions. Unlike other
gemstones of beryl
family, inclusions are
often tolerated in
emerald. Indeed,
inclusions are
considered as one of the
natural characteristics
of emerald. Emerald can
be found in Colombia,
Brazil, Zambia,
Pakistan, Nigeria,
India, Australia, South
Africa and Zimbabwe.
