Tourmaline Necklace

When you decide to indulge yourself with a fabulous tourmaline necklace, you are investing in a jewellery piece that is so versatile that you could wear it every day. With approximately 100 colors of tourmaline recognized, you could literally be wearing a rainbow around your neck!

Popular colors often found in tourmaline necklaces include golden-brown tourmaline, also known as dravite tourmaline, and black tourmaline, also known as schorl tourmaline. A dravite tourmaline necklace will have gems that range from sunny yellow to deep golden brown. The gems in a schorl tourmaline necklace will range from jet black to smoky gray.

However, pink and green are the most popular colors sought in tourmaline necklaces. Pink tourmaline, also called at rubellite tourmaline, will range from a baby pink to a deep rose. Green tourmaline, also known as verdelite tourmaline, varies from deep olive green to soft mint green.

Tourmaline necklaces sometimes feature gems with a mixture of one or more colors. The most common is watermelon, which is shades of pink, red or green, sometimes even separated by a band of clear, much like the summertime treat!

Tourmaline bead necklaces are simply breath taking. You'll see polished or faceted beads in dozens of colors, sometimes with dozens of shades in one piece. Some of the most gorgeous tourmaline necklaces are a mixture of colored gems. Often called rainbow tourmaline, you'll find cabochons or dazzling cut gems in many fabulous necklace designs.

When shopping for a tourmaline necklace, look for clear, saturated color. As with most gems, the deeper and more clear the color of tourmalines in your bracelet, the higher the value.

Be sure to never use hairspray, cosmetics or perfume when wearing your tourmaline necklace. These products can ruin the shiny finish on your tourmalines.
