| GEMSTONE APPRAISAL / EVALUATION: | Based on industry standards, the fair market value of this vivid orangish-pink tourmaline is estimated to be in the range of USD 400 to USD 600 per carat, reflecting its color, clarity, and handcrafted cushion cut. Factors like its strong saturation and lack of heat treatment contribute positively to its market worth, particularly given its origin from Madagascar, known for producing fine-quality tourmalines. As for its future as an investment, this tourmaline may not yield significant appreciation due to its lower carat weight of 1 carat. While its vibrant color and quality make it attractive, larger stones tend to hold more investment value. Instead, this gemstone may fit well as a unique piece in jewelry, such as in a fine pendant or ring, adding beauty and elegance to any collection rather than being seen strictly as a monetary investment. |
