One of the most unusual and dazzling of Tourmaline shades - this is a remarkable almost chartreuse yellow from Zambia.  Quite frankly, you may not suspect Tourmaline when you first see this color - so rare and intense is it. The gem is not clean, but has a classice Rubellite series of inclusions - none that are particular high relief or distracting. What is quite nice is the lovely US cut and the huge size - as if the color wan’t striking enough, here it is in a 15+ carat gem. The only one close to this size and color that we have. One for the connoisseur of Tourmaline.
