Higher grades may have increased by over 30% Paraiba tourmaline, the neon glowing greenish blue color tourmaline, and the rarest member of the tourmaline family of gems, has experienced a tremendous rise in prices, especially those sourced in Brazil. If only a few years ago, just mentioning that your gem Paraiba was of African origin might have killed the deal, today African Paraibas are much better received and are in great demand. Analyzing our big data system of actual transactions and asking prices of Paraiba gems, indicates that in the last couple of years the gem market has experienced a sharp rise in the demand and the prices of Paraibas.                                                                                                                                   Low-quality Paraibas have risen by at least 20% while higher grades may have increased by over 30%.
