Tourmaline is a colourful group of minerals with a wide variety of colours, including pink, red, green and black. Tourmalines are usually found in granite rocks that have been exposed to high temperatures and pressure during volcanic activity. The name “tourmaline” comes from the Sinhalese word for “mixed stones”.

In the Middle Ages, it was believed that tourmaline could protect people from evil spirits and encourage dreams to come true. It was also believed that if you wore an emerald cut tourmaline in your right ear it would improve your memory, while if you wore one in your left ear it would help you fall asleep easier at night!
