Green Tourmaline Ring

Size 14 ring, entirely handmade in high-purity 950 silver. The green tourmaline crystal in this simple and delicate ring displays a beautiful chrome-green hue. The 7x5 mm stone is held in place by four prongs at each end; this setting allows light to enter around the stone, enhancing its stunning color.

The elements that give tourmalines their green hue are vanadium, chromium, or iron. The greatest admirer of tourmalines was Empress Dowager Cixi, who ruled China from 1860 to 1908. The Empress used the stone in carvings, on watch chain clasps, and on the buttons of jackets worn by the Imperial Court. Origin: Brazil. Properties: Transforms negative energy into positive energy and promotes patience, rejuvenation, and creativity. Zodiac Sign: Taurus
