Clean Rubellite is very rare, so if you see a super clean stone it's probably a Pink Tourmaline or a Rubellite Garnet. Rubellite's intense RED color makes it a beautiful Gem for mounting. Colors range in Rubellite from Fuchsia to maroon Red to Red. The price of Rubellite goes up dramatically as the size increases or the Red deepens in intensity.
There have been no new stocks of clean Rubellite Tourmaline on the market for several years. Expect it to continue to move upward in price. Called Rubellite because the deepest shades appear to be Ruby-like RED. Like all tourmalines, it has strong pleochroism. Eye clean Rubellite is one of the most expensive of the Tourmalines since most Rubellite has visible inclusions.
