Paraíba tourmaline is one of the rarest gemstones in the world. It was only discovered in the 1980s in the Brazilian state of Paraíba, from which it takes its name. Its uniquely vivid colour is caused by the presence of copper and manganese – a combination found in almost no other gemstones. This gives Paraíba tourmaline an unmistakable luminous effect that stands out in both daylight and artificial light.
Every gemstone is entirely unique. This is precisely why Paraíba tourmaline has become a symbol of individuality, distinction and a personal story – the perfect choice for an engagement ring with genuine meaning.
At SALABA Jewellery Studio, we create bespoke engagement rings tailored precisely to your ideas, measurements and wishes.
We will source a genuine Paraíba tourmaline directly from Brazil, where we have a personal relationship with a family-owned company that operates its own mines. This direct connection allows us to offer gemstones of the highest quality with a verified origin, as well as the opportunity to select the exact shade, shape and size you prefer.
We can create your Paraíba tourmaline engagement ring:
- entirely bespoke, based on your vision;
- with a gemstone in any shape, including round, oval, cushion or emerald;
- in any size and in white, yellow or rose gold, or platinum;
- with the option of combining it with diamonds or other natural gemstones.
We design every ring together with you using state-of-the-art 3D software, creating an original piece of jewellery with a personal story.
In recent years, Paraíba tourmaline has retained and increased its value significantly faster than diamonds. While the price of natural diamonds remains relatively stable, the value of genuine Brazilian Paraíba tourmaline has risen by tens or even hundreds of per cent over the past decade. This growth is driven by its extreme rarity: very few new gemstones are being discovered, while demand among collectors and leading jewellers worldwide continues to increase.
Thanks to its unique colour, limited availability and origin in Brazilian mines, Paraíba tourmaline is not only a symbol of distinction, but also an exceptionally attractive investment that has outperformed traditional diamonds over the long term.
Unlike conventional jewellery shops, we do not use intermediaries. The Paraíba tourmalines we offer our customers come directly from family-owned mines in Brazil with which we have a long-standing partnership.
This allows us not only to guarantee each gemstone’s authenticity, but also to offer a better price and an individual selection tailored to your wishes. Every gemstone is certified for origin and quality, so you can be certain that your ring will be truly unique.
A Paraíba tourmaline engagement ring is perfect for anyone who:
- is looking for an alternative to a traditional natural diamond;
- wants an original gemstone with a story;
- loves ocean colours and the energy of summer;
- or simply longs for a luxurious and unconventional piece of jewellery.
Paraíba tourmaline symbolises passion, distinction and purity – the very values on which marriage is founded.
A Paraíba tourmaline engagement ring is an investment in beauty, emotion and originality. Every ring is created in our family-run SALABA Jewellery Studio, with an emphasis on meticulous craftsmanship and materials of the highest quality.
