Rubellite is a specific variety of tourmaline, which is a crystalline boron silicate mineral with complex and varied chemical compositions. What sets rubellite apart is its color - it's a striking deep red to pink-red variety of tourmaline. The color is usually caused by the presence of trace amounts of manganese.
Here are a few key characteristics of rubellite tourmaline:
Color: Rubellite's color can range from a vibrant pink to a deep reddish-pink or purplish-red. The intensity and hue of the color can vary depending on the specific composition of the gem.
Durability: Tourmaline is generally a durable gemstone, suitable for everyday wear. However, like all gemstones, it can still be susceptible to scratching or damage if not treated with care.
Transparency: Rubellite tourmaline is often transparent, allowing light to pass through and give the gem its characteristic brilliance.
Origin: Rubellite tourmaline can be found in various locations around the world, including Brazil, Madagascar, Afghanistan, and some parts of Africa.
Cut and Shape: Rubellite is typically cut into various shapes for jewelry purposes, including faceted cuts, cabochons, and beads.
Market Value: The value of rubellite tourmaline, like other gemstones, is influenced by factors such as color, clarity, size, and overall quality. Deeper and more intense red hues tend to be more valuable. Larger stones with good clarity and fewer inclusions also command higher prices.
Jewelry Use: Rubellite tourmaline is often used in jewelry settings such as rings, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets. Its striking color makes it a popular choice for those seeking vibrant and unique gemstone jewelry.
When purchasing rubellite tourmaline or any gemstone, it's important to buy from reputable sources to ensure you're getting a genuine and accurately described gemstone. Gemological certificates can provide information about the gem's characteristics and authenticity.
