Marsha, I am planning on writing more about tourmalines in the future as it is a very fascinating family of minerals. Here in Connecticut shorl, the black tourmaline, is one of the more common minerals and I have a lot of examples of the stuff... Somewhere. I, myself, am partial to the pink and red colors, of course. Marlaine, Rachele, thank you so much!

I just bought some faceted brown, gold and orange tourmaines. I thought watermelon greens and pinks were all there was, but obviously, you would not have been as surprised as I was. Gorgeous pendant as well. Wonderful info as usual Patricia. I just bought some faceted brown, gold and orange tourmaines.
