Chrome Tourmalines
Chrome tourmaline is a type of tourmaline gemstone known for its lush green hues. This tourmaline variety was only officially discovered in the late 1900s.
Is chrome tourmaline rare? Generally, yes. Though not as rare as varieties like Paraiba tourmaline or rubellite, chrome tourmaline is much rarer and more sought-after than other types of green tourmalines. It’s even rarer than tsavorite garnet and emerald!
You might wonder: what is the rarest color of tourmaline? Spoiler alert: it’s not green. It’s actually blue! But green tourmalines that classify as chrome tourmaline are still rare.
Tourmaline is a birthstone for October, along with opal. Tourmaline is also the gem of the eighth anniversary.
