About Tourmaline
Tourmaline is not one mineral but a group of related borosilicates sharing a structure while differing in chemistry. That flexibility gives tourmaline the widest colour range of any gem family, including bicoloured crystals that shift along their length. You can read more via gemmological reference, mineral data.
Tourmaline crystallises in granitic pegmatites and in some metamorphic rocks, forming the long striated prisms collectors recognise. Chemistry can change as a crystal grows, producing the banded watermelon effect.
Why You Will Love This Parcel
💎 Uncut Natural Material
These stones arrive entirely as nature grew them, allowing you to study the rough exterior textures and plan your cuts for maximum yield.
✨ Rich Colour Variation
The parcel contains diverse shades of green, giving your finished jewellery pieces or mineral collection a wonderful variety of natural colour.
🔷 Lapidary Potential
Designed specifically for makers who enjoy slicing, slabbing, and cabochon cutting to reveal the rich interior depth of each raw crystal.
📦 Exactly What Is Pictured

Popular Uses
Tourmaline is used across all jewellery types and is a favourite among designers for its colour palette. At 7 to 7.5 it is a practical choice for regularly worn pieces. Rough of this kind is bought by cutters, wire wrappers and collectors rather than set as it is.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly do I receive in this parcel?
You receive the whole lot pictured: 45.55 grams of natural Green Tourmaline rough, with individual stones between 0.3 to 1.67 grams. The parcel is not split and the stones are not sold separately.
What is the best way to work this rough material?
Inspect each piece under strong light to identify natural fractures and inclusions before putting the stone to a diamond saw. Orienting your cuts carefully will help you salvage the cleanest sections for your finished jewellery projects.
Are these pieces suitable for wire wrapping?
Yes, many pieces in this lot feature interesting natural crystal shapes that make them fantastic candidates for raw wire wrapped jewellery designs. You can cage them securely without needing to alter the original rough contours at all.
How durable is the finished jewellery made from this material?
Tourmaline sits high enough on the Mohs scale to handle daily wear with sensible care, making it robust enough for rings and bracelets. Avoid sharp impacts against hard surfaces to keep the finished stones free from chips or fractures.
How should I clean these raw stones?
Wash your rough material in warm soapy water using a soft brush to remove any dirt from the crystal faces. Dry the stones thoroughly with a soft cloth before storing them in your workshop.
How long does delivery take, and can I return it?
We contact you directly as soon as your order is placed to arrange delivery, so you always know where the parcel is. Returns are accepted within 7 days of the date you receive the item.
Are your stones natural, or are any of them synthetic?
Everything we sell is 100% natural. We do not deal in synthetic or laboratory-grown material, and we do not hide anything about a piece: the photographs are shot to show every detail, including the ones a seller might prefer you did not see.
Are the stones in the photographs the ones I will be sent?
Yes. Every parcel is weighed and photographed as a group before it is listed, and once it sells the listing comes down.
