The many colors of tourmaline make it an interesting gemstone that is often confused with other gemstones. Colors span the gamut from light green to dark green with pinks, yellow, blues, reds and black. They are beautiful when used together or separately. Use faceted tourmaline beads for elegant jewelry or design naturally beautiful pieces with the rough beads. The different colors of tourmaline are said to have unique metaphysical qualities. However, many believe that all tourmaline gemstones have the power to inspire creativity. |
