Delightfully fresh Watermelon Tourmaline, faceted 4mm slices on 14-inch strands
The name comes from the range of pinks and greens in these yummy beads
No other gemstone comes in such a great range of colors and this is just one of the reasons it's so popular for jewelry and metaphysical uses among others.
Fun fact: heating and cooling or rubbing, can electrically charge tourmaline crystals, which will then attract dust particles of bits of paper. Dutch traders of the 1700s who brought tourmalines from Sri Lanka to Europe used this property to extract ash from their meerschaum pipes!
Today the largest deposits of tourmalines are Brazil, the USA, and Madagascar in addition to Sri Lanka.
Metaphysical writers consider Watermelon Tourmaline to be one of the most important crystals for working with the energies of the heart's emotional, physical and spiritual components, encouraging us to feel joy from within.
