Light Pink Tourmaline Facet Rough - ALMOST Achroite - 9.71 ct. VVS+

Gem:  Tourmaline Weight:  9.71 ct. Dimensions: 8.3 x 7.4 x 15.4 mm Clarity:  VVS+  There's some surface chatter, that will 100% cut out in cutting Origin:  Unknown.  Probably Brazil Treatments:  Unknown, probably none, but could be heated. Comments: It's very light color MIGHT cut to purely achroite (colorless) in the end.  Or it could still be a very light pink.  Either way, this gem has a great shape for yield in an emerald-cut rectangle.  If you wanted, there's enough room to cut the gem in half and cut two square gems.   Great deal for this one, since I don't know much about it's origin, and the color is light.  Bonus for you, if you're looking for an achroite gem, as this may be your ticket!
