Black Tourmaline and Feldspar Rough Crystal Cut Base - One of a Kind

Raw black tourmaline is all about texture, and this piece pairs dark tourmaline with feldspar on a flat cut base.

The rough surfaces are left natural, so you can see the contrast between the black tourmaline and the feldspar, along with the ridged texture tourmaline is known for. The bottom has been cut flat, which answers the most common question about raw stones: yes, it sits steady on its own on a desk, a shelf, an entryway table or beside a computer. At about 6.75 inches long, it is big enough to notice without crowding a small space. It makes a good gift for an October birthday, since tourmaline is an October birthstone, or for anyone who prefers raw stones to polished ones. This is the exact piece shown.

The crystal is about 6.75 by 2.75 by 2 inches. Look at the ruler photo and the in hand photo for scale.

About Black Tourmaline and Feldspar

Tourmaline is a large group of boron silicate minerals, and schorl, the black variety, is the most common. It forms long prismatic crystals, usually triangular in cross section, with heavy vertical striations on the prism faces. Feldspars are the most abundant mineral group in Earth's crust.

Stone Meaning: Black tourmaline is traditionally associated with grounding and protection.
