HISTORY

The stone was first discovered by Dutch traders off the west coast of Italy in the late 16th or early 17th century. At the time, green tourmalines were thought to be emeralds. It was only in the 19th century that scientists realized that these stones were their own kind of minerals.

The name tourmaline comes from the Sinhalese word "turmali". It is the term Dutch merchants used for the multicolored pebbles covered with water that miners found in the gem gravels of Ceylon. This name was given to all the coloured crystals on Ceylon at that time. This simplistic name indicates the inability of ancient gem dealers to distinguish tourmaline from other stones.

In fact, at one time in history, pink and red tourmalines were considered rubies. Pink tourmaline exhibits a more vibrant pink color than ruby. However, it is easy to see why people so easily confuse tourmaline with other gemstones: Very few gems match the dazzling array of tourmaline colours. From rich reds to pastel pinks and peaches, intense emerald greens to vibrant yellows and deep blues, the colour range of this gem is unrivalled. Brazilian discoveries in the 1980s and 1990s increased the appeal of tourmaline by bringing new intense shades to the market.

Humans have probably used tourmaline as a gemstone for centuries, but until the development of modern mineralogy, they identified it as some other stone (ruby, sapphire, emerald, etc.) based on its coloration.

It is reported that artists were to be stimulated by tourmaline in inspiration and mystics in spirituality.
