Tourmaline + Herkimer Diamond Crystal Sterling Silver Pendant
A Sterling Silver pendant made with a Tourmaline crystal from Brazil. This beautiful Indicolite Tourmaline Crystal is combined with a Herkimer Diamond crystal accent.
Tourmaline has many names, and there are 14 different minerals in the group; tourmaline is also called schorl (black tourmaline), elbaite (watermelon tourmaline, bi-color tourmaline), indicolite (blue tourmaline), rubellite (red tourmaline) and sometimes quartz has tourmaline crystals included, which is called tourmalinated quartz. Tourmaline is collected as a fine specimen and is also used in jewelry.
Tourmaline + Herkimer Diamond Sterling Silver Pendant #9066
Handmade by Richard Bolger with a rare top quality Tourmaline Crystal.
“The Pendants and Earrings I make are crafted from Sterling Silver wire using natural stones, crystals, cut stones and carvings. It all started over 30 years ago when I made my first “wirewrapped” pendant with a Herkimer Diamond. I select each Herkimer Diamond, Moldavite, Fossil, Meteorite and Semi-precious Stone that is set into these handmade Jewels. Herkimer Diamonds are one of my favorites. I use them often in combination with other Crystals, Fossils, Moldavite and space rocks to create unique Jewels with an emphasis on Herkimer Diamond Crystals.”
