Black Tourmaline, also known as Schorl, is a striking black crystal from the tourmaline family, valued for its deep color, durability, and natural luster. Found in igneous and metamorphic rocks, Black Tourmaline forms long, striated crystals with a glassy to resinous surface. With a Mohs hardness of 7 to 7.5, it is both tough and versatile, making it ideal for jewelry, carvings, and mineral collections.

In jewelry, Schorl is often cut into cabochons, beads, or faceted gemstones. Its dramatic black hue complements both minimalist and bold designs, appearing in rings, pendants, bracelets, and necklaces. Beyond aesthetics, Black Tourmaline is also appreciated for its metaphysical properties, believed to shield against negative energies and provide grounding, focus, and emotional balance.

Collectors and designers prize Black Tourmaline for its combination of beauty, toughness, and unique crystal structure. Whether worn as jewelry, displayed as a decorative mineral, or used for energy practices, Schorl offers a perfect blend of elegance, resilience, and holistic appeal.
