Description: 

Afghan lagoon tourmaline refers to a specific type of tourmaline sourced from Afghanistan, known for its vivid blue to blue-green hues similar to the color of tropical lagoons. While not as famous as Paraíba tourmaline, Afghan lagoon tourmalines can be strikingly beautiful and are increasingly appreciated in the gemstone market.

Key Features of Afghan Lagoon Tourmaline:

  • Color: Rich lagoon blue, teal, or turquoise, often comparable in appearance to Paraíba (though usually without the copper content).

  • Origin: Found in regions like the Nuristan Province in northeastern Afghanistan, known for producing fine-quality tourmalines and other gemstones.

  • Clarity: Often good, but like many colored gemstones, inclusions are not uncommon.

  • Chemical Composition: Typically elbaite tourmaline, not copper-bearing like Paraíba, but can still exhibit intense color due to other trace elements like iron or manganese.

  • Rarity & Value: Less rare than Paraíba, but still valuable depending on color saturation, size, and clarity. It’s a more affordable alternative to Paraíba tourmaline with similar visual appeal.

Why It's Special:

Afghan lagoon tourmaline is valued for its natural vivid color, good transparency, and ethical sourcing possibilities, often sold through gem dealers specializing in Central and South Asian stones.
