RUBELLITE
Rubellite is a gemstone from the tourmaline family. Its name comes from the Latin word “rubellus” which means “reddish.” It is one of the most prized and expensive members of the tourmaline family because of its beauty and rarity. The rubellite in the Architect pendant shown comes from a famous find in early 2000. It is especially difficult to find stones that are “pure red,” and to find them in larger sizes. Not all material is this desired hue, or as good of color. Color is the most important determinant of value, with the most saturated and redder colors being the most valuable. Tourmaline is the birthstone for October, and marks the 8th wedding anniversary. It has a hardness of 7.0-7.5, making it very durable for everyday wear with proper care. More about Tourmaline HERE
