About Rubellite Tourmaline
Tourmaline is classified as a semi-precious gemstone that displays an array of colors from red, pink, blue, violet to green, brown, yellow, and black. Within this gemstone's unsurpassed range of colors, there is also a much-loved class of pink and red variety known as Rubellite. This gemstone is often mistaken for and compared against Ruby, but the structure and intensity of Rubellites differ and in fact, are much rarer.

Even within its class, Rubellite has a wide range of hues from very light to some gemstones that are so dark red they can only be recognized when held against a light. Additionally, there is also a range of colors -pink to red, although Rubellite pink is a more vivid and saturated color than Pink Tourmaline. The International Colored Gemstone Association (ICGA) explains that a true Rubellite will shine just as intensely in artificial light as it does in daylight, while other pink or red Tourmalines display a visible tinge of brown in artificial light.

The vertically striated crystals of tourmaline may occur as long and slender, or thick and columnar. Often times a single crystal of tourmaline will display colors that may be transparent to dark and opaque. Rubellite tourmaline also shows a remarkable dichroism. Depending on the angle of view of a rubellite tourmaline stone, the color will be different or at least show different intensity.

The name Tourmaline comes from an ancient Sinhalese word turmali, meaning “a mixed color precious stone,” or turamali, meaning “something small from the earth.” The name ‘Rubellite' stems from the Latin ‘rubellus', which means ‘reddish'. Rubellites are mainly found in Brazil, Madagascar, Mozambique, Nigeria, and Pakistan

A distinguishing property of tourmaline is its ability to become electrically charged simply by heating or rubbing it. This property retailer of pyroelectricity (from heat) or piezoelectricity (from pressure or rubbing) was well-known to the Dutch traders of the 1700s who used Tourmaline to pull ash from their Meerschaum pipes, calling the stone Aschentrekker, or “ash puller.” When charged, one end becomes positive and the other negative, allowing it to attract particles of dust or bits of paper.

Tourmaline has been utilized throughout the ages by many civilizations as a healing power or as a tool to promote the awakening of self as a part of the universal spirit. There is a story that those who wear Rubellite will attract loving energies, including the soulmate of its bearer.

Rubellite is thought to emit an energy of unconditional love to all those who come into contact with its passionate vibration. Many spiritualists believe that Rubellite promotes ‘karuna', the Sanskrit word for compassion. Its balancing properties are purported to promote a connection with nature and to develop an inner strength and courage of conviction or willpower. Rubellite is also a favored stone for those seeking to release repetitive patterns; to let go ‘of old' and embrace the new.
