Mint Tourmaline & Diamond Pendant

Before paraiba-type tourmalines from Africa gained popularity, rare teal, mint, and seafoam-colored tourmalines were discovered in Afghanistan. Though they don't contain copper, these gems display a beautiful mint-green hue, just like the one in this pendant. We often set them in white gold, which brings out the gem's soft blue undertones and enhances its overall color.

This pendant is adorned with delicate sprays of diamonds that gracefully intertwine above the gem, adding a sense of elegance and movement. The gem itself sparkles beautifully, having been expertly cut into a custom "pillow cushion" shape by renowned lapidary Clay Zava. This one-of-a-kind piece showcases the perfect blend of exceptional craftsmanship, stylish design, and the natural beauty of one of Afghanistan's most captivating gem treasures. 

Details: 14k white gold pendant featuring a 2.24ct square cushion pillow mint Afghan tourmaline (untreated) and .22ctw in diamond accents (SI2-I1, GH), measuring 1.25 inches in length.
