Tourmaline is a stunning and versatile gemstone found in igneous and metamorphic rocks, particularly granite pegmatites and schists. It dazzles in an array of colours—from deep blacks and lush greens to vibrant pinks and multi-coloured "watermelon” varieties—often forming elongated, striated crystals with a brilliant vitreous lustre. In folklore, Tourmaline is celebrated for protection and grounding. Metaphysically, it is believed to balance energy, boost creativity, and support emotional healing, while fostering confidence, clarity, and a deeper connection to one’s spiritual path.
