What to look for in tourmaline

Tourmaline lots can have different colours, shapes and proportions. Compare the appearance of the individual stone in its photographs, together with the measurements and written description, rather than assuming a value from its colour name.

A loose stone can be a collector's purchase or the start of a custom jewellery project. Read the condition and treatment disclosure, check the quantity supplied and include any separate setting costs in your budget.

  • How colour appears across the stone and between views.
  • Shape, dimensions and the quantity included.
  • The individual treatment and condition notes.
