The so-called &#8220;Paraiba tourmaline&#8221;, which is named after the place where it was found &#8211; the state of Para\u00edba in north-eastern Brazil &#8211; is particularly sought-after. The first specimen of this <a href=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/en\/turmanling-group-varieties-of-the-colorful-gemstone\/\">variety of tourmaline<\/a> was discovered there at the end of the 1980s near the village of Sao Jos\u00e9 d\u00e9 Batalha.<\/p>\n<p>Originally a designation of origin, Paraiba tourmaline is now defined by its copper and manganese content &#8211; regardless of its origin. Depending on the ratio of copper and manganese, the <a href=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/en\/the-colors-of-gemstones\/\">color<\/a> varies from bright emerald green to blue-green and turquoise. Many Paraiba tourmalines undergo <a href=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/en\/gemstone-treatments\/\">treatments<\/a>. In particular, <a href=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/en\/heat-treatment-of-gemstones\/\">firing the gemstones<\/a> is a common method of changing their color.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from Brazil, this rare gemstone can only be found in Mozambique and Nigeria. It is not only because of its rarity that the <a href=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/en\/on-the-price-of-gemstones\/\">price<\/a> of Paraiba tourmalines is expected to continue to rise. Stones of 1 carat or more are suitable for investment purposes.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"tng-custom-divider\"><div class=\"tng-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/bildschirmfoto-2020-05-12-um-11.09.04.png\"><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin: 0cm; line-height: 150%;\">Kashmir sapphire<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1589879657419{margin-top: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text]Not only is the precious cashmere wool named after the Himalayan region of Kashmir, but also the legendary <a href=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/en\/origin\/kashmir\/\">Kashmir sapphire<\/a>. The gemstone captivates with its pleasant velvety blue color, which is known for its &#8220;sleepy appearance&#8221;. This refers to the slightly foggy appearance of the stone, which is caused by rutile inclusions.<\/p>\n<p>The blue gemstone from the Indian part of Kashmir is extremely rare, as it was only mined for a limited period of time. The site was uncovered by a landslide at the end of the 19th century and dried up just a few years later. Today, sapphires can be found in the Himalayan region of Burma, Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam as well as in East Africa, Montana (USA) and Australia. An immense premium is paid <a href=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/en\/where-to-buy-gemstones\/\">when buying<\/a> Kashmir sapphires.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Pride of Kashmir&#8221; is considered one of the largest sapphires from the Indian Kashmir region.

In addition to pigeon-blood rubies, Paraiba tourmalines and sapphires are also found in Montepuez.<\/p>\n<p>Of all gemstones, ruby is the most suitable as an investment. The value of the rare red stone increases every year, which makes it particularly attractive as an <a href=\"https:\/\/thenaturalgem.com\/en\/gemstones-as-an-investment\/\">investment<\/a>.
