Half polished, half raw: this black tourmaline point has a hand polished top and a natural base with feldspar.
The point is hand polished so the details of the black tourmaline can show, while the lower part is left raw to keep its natural texture, with feldspar attached. A flat base lets it stand on its own on a desk, a shelf or an entryway table without a stand. It is a chunky, solid piece for its size, about 3.75 inches high and 3.625 inches wide, so it has more presence than a slim point. Tourmaline is the newer October birthstone, which makes this a meaningful gift for an October birthday, as well as for a housewarming or a mineral collector. If you prefer stones that still look natural rather than fully polished, the raw base gives you that. This is the exact point shown.
The point is about 3 inches long, 3.625 inches wide and 3.75 inches high.
Tourmaline is a large group of boron silicate minerals, and schorl, the black variety, is the most common tourmaline. It grows as prismatic crystals that are usually triangular in cross section, often with vertical striations. Feldspars are the most abundant mineral group in Earth's crust.
Stone Meaning: Black tourmaline is traditionally associated with grounding and protection.
