Watermelon Tourmaline Rough Crystal on Matrix from Brazil - One of a Kind

Hand selected on our last buying trip to Brazil, this watermelon tourmaline is a rough crystal with pink and green color.

It is still on its matrix, which shows how the tourmaline formed. Watermelon tourmaline is zoned, pink at the core and green toward the rim, and you can see both colors in this piece. At about 5 inches long it is a comfortable size for a shelf, a display cabinet or a meditation space. Collectors who like to see the matrix a crystal grew on will find plenty to study here. You get this exact tourmaline.

About 5 by 3 by 3.5 inches overall; the ruler photo shows the scale.

About Watermelon Tourmaline

Tourmaline is a large group of boron silicate minerals, and the lithium bearing species elbaite is behind many colored gem tourmalines. Watermelon tourmaline is zoned, with a pink core and a green rim; manganese produces the pinks and iron the greens. Tourmaline is an October birthstone and the traditional gem for an eighth anniversary.

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