  • Multicolor Tourmaline  rondelles 3x5mm on 14.5-inch strand
  • Tourmaline has a wider variation in colors than any other gemstone.
  • Tourmalines can be red or pink (aka Rubelite), yellow, brown (aka Dravite), green (aka Chromdravite), blue (aka Indicolite), violet and black
  • This is typical Indian cutting and stringing used for a variety or precious and semi-precious gems. 
  • The stones are most likely from Sri Lanka, which is also the source of the name turmali , which became Tourmaline.
  • Brazil is currently the most important source of tourmalines, but they are also found in the US, Africa, Madagascar and Russia.
  • With its many varieties and capacity to become electrically charged when rubbed, tourmaline is one of the most important mineral groups for metaphysical use.
  • Only one available from the collection of Joyce Diamanti, bead researcher, writer, editor and educator
