If you want a pink tourmaline point that feels solid in the hand, this polished piece on matrix is thick through the body and easy to display.
It is about 2.5 inches deep, so it sits steadily on a shelf, a desk or in a display case and has more heft than its height suggests. We identify it as watermelon tourmaline, with green tones alongside the pink, and the polish shows those colors against the matrix. Tourmaline is the October birthstone and the gem for an eighth anniversary, so it works well as a personal gift with a story behind it. Someone starting a mineral collection will appreciate seeing tourmaline still set in its host rock. This is the exact point shown.
The point is about 4 by 2 by 2.5 inches. Look at the ruler photo for scale.
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.
