“I’m going where the water tastes like wine.  We can jump in the water stay drunk all the time.”

This spectacular, 9.11 carat oval Brazilian Tourmaline shows incredible clarity and displays a stunning Marsala color.  With undertones of red, brown, and plum, the red-wine color featured in this gem is deeply saturated with medium tone.  According to the Pantone Color Institute, Marsala has been named the color of the year for 2015.  One of the birthstones for October, Tourmaline can be found in many locations throughout the world, but some of the finest material is mined in Brazil.
This particular stone was acquired at an estate sale a few years ago as part of the collection of an avid rockhound and mineral collector who was auctioning off his stones to prepare for retirement after 40 years of collecting.  At over 9 carats, this stunning, loupe-clean Marsala-colored tourmaline is impressive enough to make me want to jump right in and drink it up!
