Brilliant cushion-cut Seafoam tourmaline from Afghanistan, showing exceptional clarity and precision faceting. This color in tourmaline is primarily due to traces of iron or chromium and vanadium, with this particular shade reflecting a cool, saturated tone often associated with Afghan deposits.
Afghanistan has become a key source for fine tourmalines in the last few decades, particularly from the Nuristan region. Tourmaline's durability and striking range of color make it one of the most versatile and collectible gemstones in the world.
