Black Tourmaline Rectangle Necklace

This rectangle gemstone necklace really makes a statement! 

The rectangles are 35mm x 25mm and have two large gemstones (12mm -14mm) set in copper in the centre. The chain (Included) is a oval link chain that extends from 60cm to cm. It has a lobster clasp.

The gemstones we use are raw and unpolished, so they might have some” imperfections”. (In our opinion it adds to the beauty and individuality of each piece!) 

Jewellery pieces are created by a process called copper electroforming, which allows for the deposition of copper electrolytes over several hours in a copper/acid solution. This results in unique and unpredictable textures, as the entire process is organic.

Please be aware that the colour of copper darkens over time, and the item can be cleaned using a sachet of Copperbrite and a soft cloth. (Available hereCopper can potentially turn the skin green as it reacts with the chemicals in some skins. A coat of clear nail polish will prevent this.

About Black Tourmaline

Tourmaline crystals are naturally electrically polarised and actually contain electric fields as a result. For this reason they are referred to as the Sri Lankan magnets, as they have the ability to attract and repel hot ashes. Black tourmaline is known as schorl and is considered the tourmaline with the highest positive energy.

Schorl is used in the walls of space stations, as it absorbs electromagnetic or solar radiation and it is seen to protect and repel negative energy.

Birthstone: October

Anniversary stone: 8th

Symbolism:

As in many ancient cultures, black tourmaline is still seen today as a symbol of protection. It is believed to provide a psychic shield deflecting and dispelling negative energies, entities, or destructive forces. It is also believed to guard against radiation given off by various electronic devices, as well as environmental pollutants. Black tourmaline is also perceived as useful in purifying and neutralising negative thoughts and internal conflicts, and turning them into positive, usable energy. It is seen to provide strength.
