Genuine Maine Tourmaline

When you purchase a Maine tourmaline from Cross we document your gem and mounting with an appraisal for insurance purposes. (Three copies: one for you, one for your insurance company, and one kept in the permanent records of Cross Jewelers; complete with photographs.) Appraisals are done on values of $350.00 and up. We also provide you with information on the mine in which your gem was found.

Soon after the extraordinary find of 3 1/2 million carats of gem tourmaline in 1972, we began the Cross Historical Registry of Maine tourmaline. We felt it was important that a master record be established to document and record all the beautiful designs which we were creating with Maine tourmaline. This historical record of several volumes contains thousands of entries showing detail production notes on each piece made, dates created, and date of sale, as well as a hand colored sketch, and the buyer's or recipient's name. Each piece is assigned a registry number which appears on the appraisal.

We believe this thorough documentation is important, as each of these fine pieces of jewelry will someday be passed on to children and grandchildren. It's nice to have ways to verify the identity and origin of a work of art.

How to Order

What is a Portfolio?
This portfolio is a snapshot of a portion of our Maine tourmaline collection as of 1996. Many of these pieces we are still making and are available. Some of these designs are one-of-a-kind and once sold will never be available again. Because this is a portfolio, review the styles, select several possibilities, then give us a call.

Scale
For scale: print this page and lay an American penny beneath the picture. The outside diameter of the penny is approximately the outside diameter of the ring.

About Pricing
All prices were current as of 1996. Prices on replacements are likely to be higher. Call for availability and confirmation of current pricing. As time passes and pieces are recreated, weights and grades of gems can vary and thus subsequent pieces and prices may vary from our printed price guide. Because of the unique color of Maine tourmaline, the color may also vary on subsequent pieces. Part of what makes Maine tourmaline special is its very individual color.

Finger Size
Most of our rings are a size 6 1/2. We recommend you receive your selection in the existing size. This allows us to ship your selection immediately and gives you the opportunity to be certain you and the recipient are thrilled with the design. After presentation, we will be delighted to change the size for you.
