Tall and slender, this pink tourmaline on matrix point has been polished to show off the pink crystal running through its natural host rock.
Its narrow profile, about 2.5 inches across, gives it an elegant upright look that fits a windowsill shelf, a nightstand or a narrow spot in a display cabinet where a wider piece would crowd things. We identify it as watermelon tourmaline, with green tones alongside the pink, and the polished surface makes those colors easier to see than on a rough crystal. Because the tourmaline is still set in its matrix, it keeps the character of a natural mineral specimen. October birthdays and eighth anniversaries both have tourmaline as their stone, so it is an easy gift to explain. This is the exact point shown.
The point is about 6 by 2.5 by 2.5 inches. Check the photo with decorations to see how it sits in a room.
Tourmaline is a large group of boron silicate minerals. Manganese produces its pinks and reds, while iron, and possibly titanium, produces greens and blues, and watermelon tourmaline is green on the outside and pink on the inside. Tourmaline is a birthstone for October and the gem for the eighth anniversary.
Stone Meaning: Pink tourmaline is traditionally associated with love and compassion.
