Chrome tourmaline is a rare and vibrant green variety of tourmaline, colored by trace elements of chromium and vanadium—similar to what gives emeralds their deep green hue. Primarily mined in East Africa, especially Tanzania and Kenya, chrome tourmaline stands out for its intense, saturated green color, exceptional brilliance, and superior clarity. Unlike regular green tourmaline, chrome tourmaline displays a richer, more vivid tone that rivals top-grade emeralds but with greater durability and fewer inclusions. Highly valued by gem collectors, jewelers, and lapidary artists, chrome tourmaline is often used in fine faceted gemstones, engagement rings, and bespoke jewelry. Its natural, unheated formation and rarity make it a premium choice for those seeking investment-grade colored stones. As a member of the tourmaline family, it’s also believed to support heart energy, emotional healing, and vitality, making it both a beautiful and meaningful gemstone.
