Large Watermelon Tourmaline in Matrix - Pick Your Exact Piece, 6 to 7 In

Which watermelon tourmaline suits your shelf, the longer slab or the chunkier block? You have two raw pieces to choose from, both with tourmaline still sitting in its host rock.

Option 1 is the longer and flatter of the two, so it shows a broad face and can lean upright against books or lie flat on a tray. Option 2 is shorter but thicker, and it sits low and solid, with depth you can see from the side. Both carry pink and green tourmaline through the matrix, and the photos show how the color shades differ between them. Raw matrix pieces suit a mineral collector who wants to see tourmaline as it grew, and they make an easy October birthday gift. Choose the piece whose shape suits your space.

About Watermelon Tourmaline

Tourmaline is a large group of boron silicate minerals, and elbaite is the lithium bearing species behind most colored tourmaline. Watermelon tourmaline is the name for crystals that are pink at the core and green at the rim. GIA notes that manganese produces the pinks and reds while iron produces the greens, and tourmaline is a birthstone for October.

Stone Meaning: Watermelon tourmaline is traditionally associated with harmony and balance.
