GEMSTONE APPRAISAL / EVALUATION: The Fair Market Value Appraisal for this natural, handcrafted tourmaline is estimated to be in the range of USD 400 to 600. Its strong saturation, unique slightly purplish-red color, and the quality of its handcrafted cut contribute positively to its market desirability.

Regarding its future as an investment, while the tourmaline's carat weight is appealing, its clarity rating of SI and medium dark tone may limit long-term appreciation compared to higher-quality gems. This gemstone may fit better as a personal adornment or in a statement piece of jewelry, appealing to collectors or as a unique gift-item rather than as a pure investment asset.
