What is candy tourmaline?

Tourmaline is a family of minerals that forms in nearly every color, and a candy mix brings many shades together. Known as the "lucky stone", it's traditionally a protective, good-luck stone: pink stands for love, green for growth, black for protection and yellow for joy.

Energy in tradition

In crystal tradition, mixed tourmaline is associated with balancing all seven chakras: pink and green with the heart, black with the root, yellow with the solar plexus and blue with the throat. It's a protective stone, its bright colors are chosen to lift the mood, and it suits luck, blessings and joy.

Crystal meanings come from tradition and personal experience. They are not a substitute for medical advice or treatment.

How to tell if candy tourmaline is real

Hold a bead to bright light and rotate it: real tourmaline shifts slightly in shade or tone as you turn it, shows fine lines or needle-like inclusions, and varies from bead to bead. Round bubbles point to glass, and color gathered in drill holes or cracks points to dyed stone. Skip scratch tests.

A natural mix shows uneven shades, some two-toned beads and fine inner lines. Be wary of bright, identical-looking beads or a gritty, speckled texture under magnification, which suggests reconstituted beads. Message us through our contact form if you'd like close-up photos.

Care

Cleanse your candy tourmaline bracelet with moonlight, sound, smoke or selenite. Day to day, avoid long, strong sun, store it alone in its pouch, keep it from perfume, lotion and chlorine, and take it off before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping to protect the cord.
