Pink to red tourmaline is called rubellite. Appearance The color varies from pink of varying degrees of intensity to a red which is quite attractive, although usually a bit less lively than that of ruby; it may also be violet pink or red, and pink orred with a brownish tinge. Like all tourmalines, it has strong pleochroism, sometimes visible as a deeper color or lesser transparency along the axis of the prism. lt is cut into all shapes; cabochons when the stone is too full of inclusions, but more often faceted oval, round, pear-shaped or other creative styles. Quite large stones are often seen.
Distinctive features In many cases, the color is fairly distinctive: it is a bit subdued, and not enlivened by bright light like ruby. When the stone is out with the tablo facet perpendicular to the axis of the prism, to achieve a deeper, redder color, it shows a strange loss of transparency. Pink tourmalines are, as a rule, also rather duller than other, similargems, but may be a beautiful, brilliant violet-pink.
Occurrence It is found in Siberia (to the extent that some call the violet-red -variety siberite), Burma, Sri Lanka, Brazil, the United States (California), and Madagascar.
