Dressed in Pink, Pink Maine Tourmaline & Diamond Necklace
Style #:
G4572
Rare pink Maine tourmaline from the 1972 tourmaline discovery in Maine’s western mountains. Why rare? Because the availability of pink Maine tourmaline from the ’72 find ran out 10-15 years ago. But, because we bought a lot of gems in the early days, we still have some authentic pink Maine tourmaline. We’re not keeping the scarcity of real Maine pink tourmaline a secret. It’s important you know because it’s such a beautiful gem. And, although real Maine pinks are scarce, we are releasing the last of our archival collection. We are now making the final pieces of jewelry from the 1972 gem find.
This necklace has a 2.24-carat oval pink Maine Tourmaline cut by New England’s premier gem cutter, John Bradshaw. The center gem measures 9×7.2mm and is surrounded by 23 diamonds = .30 carat total weight, including 5 diamonds in the loop at the top. The gems are set in 14K yellow gold with an 18-inch chain. This gem was found in the 1972 discovery of tourmaline on Plumbago Mountain in Newry, Maine – in Maine’s western mountains.
Why We Love This Necklace
The center gem is pure Maine – a rare pink tourmaline from the 1972 discovery in the western mountains of Maine. The diamonds are all-natural Earth-mined diamonds. Mined deep within the Earth, precision-cut for bright, sparkly brilliance. Together, the gems create a signature piece that, when worn, will be seen in all its glowing brilliance. This is a rare, serious piece of jewelry.

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 jewelry.
