The story of Brazilian gemstones begins with the arrival of Portuguese colonists in the 16th century. Following initial discoveries of diamonds, tourmalines and amethyst, additional colored gemstone varieties were discovered here over the next two centuries. Today, Brazil is recognized as one of the largest sources of gems in the world.
