Ancient peoples believed that Tourmaline had to power to transform base metals into gold due to its unusual electrical “pyroelectric” property - it can gain a slight temporary charge when subjected to an increased temperature. More recently, Pink Tourmaline is said to bestow the wearer with kindness, compassion, energy rejuvenation and inspire creativity. The perfect gift for artists, writers and creatives.

Care for your gemstone

Tourmaline is rated at 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale of gemstone hardness (Diamond is 10). Warm, soapy water is the best method for cleaning Tourmaline. The use of ultrasonic and steam cleaners is not recommended. Also avoid subjecting your Tourmaline jewellery to a drastic temperature change as it can cause the stone to fracture and constant exposure to high heat can alter the colour of the gemstone.
