What’s the big deal about tourmalines? (Calling all tourmaline lovers…!)

[Garnetgirl]

I love tourmalines for the rich, vibrant colors. They are also less expensive than other gems like sapphire. Unless, of course, you want a paraiba. In which case, prepare to shell out way more than you’d expect.

Here are my tourmalines.

I love the color on this one! It’s the perfect teal.

This paraiba is only 3mm and the color grabs your eye.
