Additional Notes: This stone was purchased as part of an estate lot and labeled by a well-known jewelry industry corporation as "Priceless Paraiba Chalcedony." The term "Paraiba" refers to a rare, electric blue tourmaline from Paraiba, Brazil, that can fetch prices as high as tens of thousands per carat. This stone... is not that.
The legendary Paraiba Chalcedony is now a beloved inside joke among the members of our shop.
