Tourmaline is a versatile stone that belongs in every jewelry lovers’ wardrobe. These gemstones appear in a rainbow of hues and add a splash of color by themselves or when paired with other gemstones.

One of the most popular colors of tourmaline is red. Rubellites, as this tourmaline is traditionally called, sometimes are such an intense red they’ve even mistaken for rubies! You can see beautiful examples in our rings and pendants. Some lighter shades of rubellite are a beautiful pink perfect for this year’s spring fashions.

Verdelite is the name for green tourmalines. It ranges in color from a deep forest or emerald green to a cool medium green. Perfect examples are two of our hand carved pendants one in perfectly matched emerald green stones, and the other in a cool medium green.

The most prized tourmalines are bi-colored, like our pieces with watermelon tourmaline stones. These gems range from red to green and are absolutely stunning. A good example is our multi-stone ring or the huge, baguette step cut stone set in a ring. We also search our sources for unusual colors in tourmaline.

A great example perfect for spring is our orangish pink rubellite ring. This gorgeous stone would be a great ring to wear with coral colored fashions that are so popular this season. More often than not, multiple colors of tourmalines are set in jewelry, and we have a wide variety of these pieces as JE Gem. We feature rainbows of tourmalines in rings, pendants, necklaces, bracelets and earrings. A unique gift would be one of our eyeglasses cords.

With the variety of hand cut colored tourmalines, and other gemstones like turquoise, amethyst and rock crystal, she’ll have an amazing signature jewelry piece and never lose her glasses again!
