Stones & Special Materials
Exuding an alluring charm that has captivated hearts for centuries, tourmalines are a gemstone of unparalleled diversity and splendor. From the rich hues of pink and red, to the tranquil shades of green and blue, these stunning stones come in an array of colors that are sure to complement any style.
But tourmalines offer more than just a beautiful exterior. These gemstones possess a unique quality known as pleochroism, which allows them to change color when viewed from different angles or under different lighting conditions. This adds an element of intrigue and mystique to these already captivating stones.
In addition to their captivating color and alluring properties, tourmalines are also renowned for their durability. As a type of borosilicate mineral, they are resistant to scratches and chipping, making them a perfect choice for everyday wear.
When seeking to add a tourmaline to your jewelry collection, it is essential to consider the quality of the stone. Higher quality tourmalines are distinguished by their deep, rich color and clarity, and are therefore considered more valuable. Regardless of the specific variety you choose, a tourmaline is sure to be a stunning and timeless addition to your collection.
Difference to Sapphires
One of the main differences between sapphires and tourmalines is their color. Sapphires are known for their deep blue color, although they can also come in other colors such as pink, yellow, and even green. Tourmalines, on the other hand, come in a wide range of colors, including pink, red, green, blue, and even multicolored.
Another key difference between the two gemstones is their composition. Sapphires are a type of corundum, which is a hard and durable mineral. Tourmalines are a type of borosilicate mineral, which is also hard and durable.
Finally, sapphires and tourmalines can differ in value depending on their quality. Higher quality sapphires and tourmalines are known for their deep, rich color and clarity, and are therefore considered more valuable.
“The cave you fear to enter, holds the treasure your seak.”
Do you know how stalactites are formed? The process is yet another miracle of Earth. Stalactites begin with a single drop of mineral-rich water formed on the roof of a cave. As each drop of water drops from the ceiling of the cave, it leaves behind the thinnest ring of a calcite deposit. As more and more drops form and fall, more rings are left behind. These then build upon one another over time, to create a stunning column hanging from the ceiling known as a stalactite. The Earring captures that power of moving forward, letting go of past fears and living in the present courageously with an open mind to new possibilities.
The Pink Tourmaline cleanses the emotional body through the high-heart center and unites it with the etheric body, infusing love and spirituality. It stimulates one’s receptivity to healing energies and the wisdom of Spirit, and brings a gentleness and compassion to one’s nature. It assists in attaining peace and understanding, awareness and trust.
