Teardrop Pendant: Black Tourmaline

Teardrops carry great meaning for many, whether for blissful happiness, a sad memory, or in remembrance of someone held dear. No matter the reason, this shape is a dazzling way to enjoy the beauty of a gemstone from Brazil.

Since black tourmaline is pleochroic, it might also be green when viewed along a different axis. This crystal is also piezoelectric which means that through mechanical action an electric pulse is formed, similar to quartz. Tourmaline is sought after as a talisman of protection to deflect and counteract negative energies. It is also used to guard against radiation and environmental pollutants.

26 to 30 mm. Some are a bit thicker, some are a bit longer - all are grade A. Please keep in mind that with Black Tourmaline, even polished, there are some flaws within the stone that are natural. Please be open to this. Thank you.
