Just finished. I believe this is the first time we’ve made this necklace. As I pulled this piece out of its Ziplock bag I was surprised by its weight. The Maine Tourmaline weighs ½ carat, its setting is heavy. It’s all gold and has a surprising density. As I felt its weight and heft in in my hand I thought, “I really like this piece.”
I hope we have more gems this size. The gem is Sparhawk, a light mint-green Maine Tourmaline. It’s surrounded by swoosh marks…looks beautiful and has a real weight to it.
The upper loop through which the 18-inch chain slides, is articulated and has five graduated diamonds weighing .025 carats. This necklace is sweet and embodies the best of Maine gems.

I’ve always dreamed of a gem find like this. To have this mine be so close to home, just 28 miles north of our store in the mountains of western Maine, is amazing. Gems so fine, so pure, with colors so vivid. It’s important someone documents this historic gem find here in Maine, because it’s a history-making discovery in the world of gems.
The video above is 1:43. It gives you a good idea of the excitement we feel for the gems we are discovering here in Maine.
Maine has been world-famous for the tourmaline gems mined here for over 200 years. The geology in our western mountains has yielded a treasure trove of world class gems. Cross Jewelers has been the Maine state leader, bringing fine Maine tourmaline jewelry to all of America for over 100 years.
We have over 200 pieces of Maine tourmaline jewelry from both the SparHawk mine and other Maine mines.
Two options for deeper Maine gem mine understanding:
A.) The 32-page written story of the 2013 gem mining season at the SparHawk mine.
b.) A collection of gem mining videos at the SparHawk mine.
