Tourmaline Gemstone Rings by David West

Rings have long symbolized the circle of life. At Gemvara, we believe that the rings you wear should be one of a kind, like you. That's why our rings are made to order in your choice of conflict-free gems and recycled precious metals. Choose black diamond and palladium or blue topaz and rose gold: it's your choice. Mix and match gems and precious metals for a look that's exactly you. It's jewelry for all life's occasions, from a birthday or graduation to your own personal milestones and celebrations. Our unrivalled selection of designs by Martha Gomez Gutierrez, Just Like You Designs, Jessica Behzad, and other talented jewelry designers means you can find a ring that's just your style. Because all Gemvara tourmaline gemstone rings are made to order, we can hand-select the finest quality materials to perfectly suit your design. The gem of creativity and innovation, tourmaline has the power to inspire artistic expression. Available in a rich palette, there is a tourmaline for every jewelry design. Gemvara offers tourmaline in a warm pink and a lush green. Tourmaline is an October birthstone and the 8th anniversary gem. Be careful when removing rings to wash your hands. Don't leave your ring on the rim of a sink where it can slip down the drain! Clean tourmaline gemstone rings with mild dish soap: use a soft brush where dust collects. Gemvara's fine quality tourmaline gemstone rings are designed to be passed down for generations to come, crafted by hand in the United States.

David West's striking jewelry designs have often been described as architectural, perhaps because at a young age his architect grandfather taught him to appreciate form, space, line, and proportion, as well as a deep appreciation for craftsmanship. A passionate designer, master goldsmith, gemologist, and entrepreneur, David has been involved in nearly every aspect of design during his long career. After training at Rhode Island School of Design and Rochester Institute of Technology's School for the American Crafts, he launched his career as a jewelry designer. In 1985, David won the prestigious De Beers Diamonds Today Award. One of the first designers to use computer-aided design, David continues to innovate today. As you might expect from such a distinguished career, David's designs are very refined and elegant, with pure clean lines. He strives to create beautiful classic jewelry items that stand the test of time.

If creativity is what you desire, then a tourmaline gem is perfect for you. Known as the gem of intuition, artistic expression and creativity, Tourmaline is popular because it comes in so many colors and combinations. Its variety of hues is also why it was named from the Sinhalese tura mali, which means "mixed stone." Cut is important when buying a tourmaline because a well-cut tourmaline will reflect the light. Tourmaline is the October birthstone and the 8th anniversary gem. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality tourmaline will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine tourmaline is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
