Kapok Flower and Guardian: Tourmaline Carving with US 14KGF Pendant

I recently came across an article that said: “Large tourmaline crystals are often fashioned by gem sculptors into special pieces for clients looking for the unusual.” Perhaps those who appreciate carved tourmaline are inherently seeking something extraordinary. ✨ The Pixiu is a familiar symbol. 🦖 The kapok flower is also a familiar sight. 🌸 But when two seemingly ordinary elements are brought together, they create a landscape that is anything but ordinary. 💫 ꒰⑅About Tourmaline⑅꒱ Tourmaline is a variety of elbaite that reaches gemstone quality. Its diverse colors are a result of the interaction of different trace elements. Because tourmaline can release negative ions and a mild electric current, it is considered a gemstone that promotes well-being, hence its name "Fu Jing" (福晶), meaning "crystal of good fortune." ꒰⑅Watermelon Tourmaline⑅꒱ A single crystal exhibiting two or more colors, most commonly red inside and green outside, resembling a watermelon hence its name. It's not limited to just red and green; blue, yellow, and purple hues can also be interwoven. The color distribution is typically uneven, showcasing the gemstone's pleochroism. This unique color characteristic makes every watermelon tourmaline piece one-of-a-kind. ꒰⑅Purchase Notice⑅꒱ .*・゚For personal hygiene reasons, returns or exchanges are not accepted once the item is sold.
