Have you ever heard of Paraiba Tourmaline?
Do you know the Paraiba Tourmaline colour?
Paraiba Tourmaline was first discovered in 1989 by Heitor Dimas Barbosa. For seven years he had been tunneling under a mountain in the São José de Batalha area, in the homonymous state of Paraiba. Eventually he came across a crystal that is now considered one of the most precious and rare gems in the world.
The discovery of a Paraiba is a unique and exceptional event, much more singular than the discovery of diamonds or rubies as so far very few mines have been discovered.
The paraiba tourmaline deposits are found in:
- Brazil
- Mozambique
And it is precisely from the international markets that Virano Gioielli buys its range of Paraiba.
Over the years, precisely due to the passion of the owner Paolo Virano for particular stones, the Virano jewelery has become a reference point on the Italian market, for all those stones with unimaginable colors, but less known than the classic rubies, emeralds or sapphires.
The beauty of Paraiba tourmaline comes from its color tones ranging from blue-green to bright turquoise.
Some define its colors as “neon” because they seem to emanate their own light that radiates outwards from the inside.
From Virano it is possible to find, both online and in the store, unique and handmade jewelry pieces, there are:
all with the use of Paraiba tourmaline at the center of their design. Or you can choose the loose stones yourself and create your exclusive personalized jewel together with Paolo and the team of master goldsmiths.
The ability to modify ready-made pieces of jewelry to your liking or to create new jewels according to your own personal taste makes Virano Gioielli capable of satisfying the needs of a vast clientele for every stylistic taste and for every purchasing ability.
