Paraibas found in other parts of the world except Brazil, are given the term "paraiba" due to their color. However, they are much more affordable compared to Brazilian Paraibas as they are less saturated in color. Mozambique or African paraibas, on the other hand cannot be distinguished from Brazilian Paraibas unless they are chemically tested. They adapt the same saturated greenish blue color as a Brazilian Paraiba! This beautiful paraiba carries a stunning color; not so saturated as the usual neon blue paraiba, but affordable and valuable.
