Mixed Tourmaline Crystal Beaded Necklace

Tourmaline
Tourmaline is the name given to a very chemically complex (A(D3)G6(Si6O18)(BO3)3X3Z) family of stones. With slight chemical differences it comes almost every colour varying from light to dark. All types of tourmaline form according to a hexagonal crystal system and have a hardness of 7.5 on the Mohs scales. These are considered precious stones and some varieties are highly valued.

These necklaces are designed to be both practical and beautiful.

Each individual faceted crystal is carefully drilled and then beaded on an 18 inch stainless steel cable with a nylon overlay.

With a  base metal clasp and a 5cm extension chain, it enables the wearer to lengthen the chain slightly.
