Black Tourmaline Tumbled Stone - 15-35 mm

Black Tourmaline Tumbled Stone, a smooth polished piece in solid opaque black with a lightly lustrous finish. Tumbling rounds each stone into its own shape, and the polish is clean and even across the selection. It sits comfortably in the hand or pocket.

Black Tourmaline is traditionally associated with protection and grounding, and is commonly used as a steadying stone to settle and shield everyday energy. People often carry a piece in a pocket or bag, place several around a room or doorway, or add them to a grid for a grounded, protected feeling. It is one of the most popular protective stones.

Each Black Tourmaline Tumbled Stone is natural, so exact shape, size and finish vary from one stone to the next.

Geological Information
Black Tourmaline, known to mineralogists as schorl, is an iron sodium borosilicate at Mohs 7 to 7.5 and the most abundant tourmaline variety. It is found worldwide in granites, pegmatites and metamorphic rocks. Tourmaline is strongly piezoelectric and pyroelectric: when rubbed or heated it develops a small electric charge and attracts dust. Sources include Brazil, the USA, parts of Africa, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
