Green Maine Tourmaline & Diamond Necklace

Style #: G3771

Rare Green Maine
Triangular Tourmaline

Over the last half-century as we have acquired lots of Maine tourmaline, one of the things I’ve been partial to is triangular cut gems. There have been just a few, and when one came along, they almost always were of superior cutting and had extra zing. The colors were great.

After buying triangles occasionally for a dozen years, I asked our primary cutter why triangular tourmaline seemed extra bright. He told me he cut them from special crystals that allowed the triangle shape. “I think they’re prettier, too,” he said.

Rarely did we put them into rings. I don’t remember having a matched pair for earrings. Once, just once, we made a bracelet. So, for the rare few that found their way to our collection, I’m surprised and delighted to show this green Maine tourmaline necklace. This necklace has a row of diamonds surrounding the center gem. I would buy a dozen of these gems if I could right now. But, Maine tourmaline from original sources is becoming more rare, and great triangles are almost impossible to find. There is something about the green color echoing down into the interior of the triangle that creates a haunting mystery.

Why We Love This Necklace

I will admit to a particular fascination for triangular tourmaline because there is an extra zing to the gem… more sparkle and an added intensity of color. Triangles are simply prettier. Put a rim of diamonds surrounding the center, and you have gem magic. As a necklace, the chain slides freely through the articulated bail. On its 18-inch chain, the necklace lies naturally two inches from her heart. It’s a simple design and has a smart, sophisticated look.

Maine Tourmaline, A Maine Story
An American Gem

First discovered in 1820 and in subsequent finds over the years, these early discoveries put Maine on the world map as a source for high-quality tourmaline gems. A major discovery in 1972 on Plumbago Mountain in Newry, Maine established Maine as a significant world source of fine tourmaline gemstones.

Cross recognized the historical significance of this find and began working closely with the miners of these magnificent gems. The close partnership continues today with the ongoing discoveries in Maine’s western mountains.

100% Natural

We go to Maine’s gem mines. We know the miners. We know the gem cutters. We guarantee our tourmaline to be from Maine and is 100% natural. Cross maintains the largest collection of fine Maine tourmaline jewelry in the world.

Window of Opportunity

Fifty years have passed since the major 1972 tourmaline find in Newry, Maine where they found 3.5 million carats of tourmaline crystals. Over the years we bought more than we sold knowing that gem finds don’t last forever. There are now colors, sizes, and shapes that are extremely rare and, in some cases, no longer available. If you see something you love it’s best to act quickly. There’s no guarantee another gem like this one exists.

Case in point: In 2007 there was a find of tourmaline in Newry, Maine called Eureka Blue. People loved the color. The gems sold quickly, but the find was small and the mining only lasted a few seasons. Within three years of the discovery, all the large Eureka gems had sold. We still get calls from people who are now ready to buy. What they want, however, simply no longer exists from that find in 2007.

Gem finds are rare, especially in North America. Maine tourmaline is a piece of Maine and American history, it’s a connection to a place we all love, an exquisite creation of nature. Today, there is a rare opportunity to own a bit of Maine/American pride and heritage, and history in choosing a piece of Maine tourmaline.
