Black Tourmaline, also known as Schorl, is a striking mineral from the tourmaline group, widely valued for its beauty, durability, and metaphysical properties. This common accessory mineral occurs in igneous and metamorphic rocks and is prized for its deep black to dark brown color, glassy to resinous luster, and unique crystal structure. With a hardness of 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, Black Tourmaline is both robust and versatile, making it suitable for jewelry, carvings, and decorative objects.
In jewelry, Black Tourmaline is often cut into faceted gemstones or polished into smooth cabochons, used in rings, necklaces, bracelets, and pendants. Its bold, elegant appearance complements both modern and traditional designs, while its durability ensures long-lasting wear.
Beyond aesthetics, Black Tourmaline is widely appreciated in metaphysical and holistic practices. It is believed to offer protective energy, shielding against negative influences and electromagnetic radiation, while promoting grounding, balance, and emotional stability.
Whether incorporated into jewelry, displayed as a decorative piece, or used for energy protection, Black Tourmaline remains a highly sought-after stone for collectors, designers, and spiritual enthusiasts, combining beauty, durability, and powerful energetic properties in a single mineral.
