History of Tourmaline Gemstone

A green Tourmaline crystal was first discovered by a Spanish conquistador in Brazil in the 1500s. In the 1800s, scientists recognised Tourmaline as a distinct mineral species. It took a while to identify the gemstone because very few gemstones match the various colours of Tourmaline.  The mesmerising gemstone has gained popularity in Europe as jewellery, for example, Rose Gold ring. Today, it is one of the most precious gemstones, prized for its beauty. 

Tourmaline's history spans centuries, and it is revered across cultures for its mesmerising array of colours and purported healing properties. Ancient Egyptians and Greeks believed it carried protective energies.
