The name apparently comes from the Sinhalese word "Turamali" which was given to mixtures of unidentified gem gravels in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). |
| Additional Information |
| A native cut yellow tourmaline, better than average cut. Although a pseudo-pineapple pavillion, the angles are sufficient to produce a good degree of brilliance without a window (fisheye) in the crown. Yellow tourmaline is again a more rare and less known variety but not more expensive. |
