"I ordered two of these and they are both gorgeous. The color is a deep paraiba color. None of my natural paraiba tourmaline gemstones are this dark. But they are a color that will not fail to catch attention from anyone who sees it. These are for earrings and I plan to order another larger one for a ring. AAA+++ once again JTV."
