Neon Depths: Paraiba Tourmaline in Custom Jewelry Design
With a vivid blue-green color like an ocean and a neon-like glow, paraiba tourmaline can make an eye-catching addition to your custom jewelry design.
The unique color of this beautiful variety of tourmaline gemstones is due to the presence of copper. Although first discovered in the Brazilian state of Paraiba in 1989 and named after this location, copper-bearing blue-green tourmaline has since been discovered in Nigeria and Mozambique, with some variations in color and clarity. The name “paraiba tourmaline” can refer to any species of blue-green copper-bearing tourmaline regardless of its source.
What can your custom made jewelry with paraiba tourmaline look like? Here are a few examples of works completed by CustomMade jewelers for their customers.
This elegant handmade 14k yellow gold ring by EVB Design Fine Jewelry Art features seven .01 ct diamonds and a .42 ct paraiba tourmaline. The glow and aquatic color of the paraiba tourmaline complement the gold and diamonds in this ring, while the subtly undulating design of the band evokes a wave, and the diamonds look like an ocean spray.
