You can easily find a 12 antique edition and 77 modern creations to choose from as well. If you’re looking for a cushion cut tourmaline from a specific time period, our collection is diverse and broad-ranging, and you’ll find at least one that dates back to the 20th Century while another version may have been produced as recently as the 21st Century. As it relates to this specific piece, our collection includes designs that are universally popular, but 5 Carat and 5.5 Carat carat weights, specifically, are sought with frequency. Creating a cushion cut tourmaline has been a part of the legacy of many jewelers, but those produced by Natkina, Polya Medvedeva Jewellery and Minka Jewels are consistently popular. Today, if you’re looking for a cushion cut version of this piece and are unable to find the perfect match, our selection also includes antique cushion cut and mixed cut alternatives. When shopping for a cushion cut tourmaline, you’ll find that there are less available pieces for unisex or men today than there are for women.

How Much is a Cushion Cut Tourmaline?

On average, a cushion cut tourmaline at 1stDibs sells for $5,769, while they’re typically $263 on the low end and $79,432 for the highest priced versions of this item.

The Legacy of Tourmaline in Jewelry Design

Very few gems dazzle quite in the manner that tourmaline does — vintage and antique tourmaline jewelry is a showstopper, and you can blame this on its wide range of spectacular colors. In fact, when Dutch traders brought stones back home from Sri Lanka that they couldn't identify, they called them "toramalli," a Sinhalese term for "mixed gems."

If you could transform the ocean to a gem, this is what it would look like: a clear, translucent azure, bordering on turquoise, hypnotizing in its depth and sparkling in the sun.

There is, in fact, such a stone, although it comes from deep in the copper-rich mountains of Paraíba, Brazil, and not from the oceans along its coast. Far rarer than diamonds, Paraíba tourmaline, a kind of tourmaline discovered only in the 1980s, is treasured as much for its extraordinary color as its scarcity, both of which contribute to its high value.

While diamonds generally sell for about $6,000 per carat, a carat of Paraíba tourmaline is likely to fetch about $16,000. Fans of the gem are said to include singer Taylor Swift and actress Zooey Deschanel, as well as some of the finest jewelers.

“No other stone can have a color as magnetic and captivating as Paraíba tourmaline,” says Vania Leles of VanLeles Diamonds, who combines the stone with diamonds and other gems in several of her designs.

You don't have to stop at Paraíba tourmaline jewelry — on 1stDibs, find the most extraordinary antique and vintage tourmaline rings, tourmaline and diamond earrings and other accessories.
