Many people use it when they want a stone that symbolically supports feeling anchored and more self-assured. It is also commonly linked with Libra in zodiac-based traditions. Because of its long-standing reputation, it is a popular choice for intention-setting, meditation, and keeping nearby in daily life.

Look and feel

These tumbled stones are polished Black Tourmaline from Brazil, with a deep black to very dark charcoal appearance. Natural Tourmaline often shows subtle texture, internal variation, and a slightly uneven finish that gives each piece character. The stones are sold in an A grade selection, meaning a stronger colour and more attractive overall appearance. Black Tourmaline rates about 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs hardness scale and is commonly found in opaque, blocky-looking pieces before tumbling.

Sizes and stones per bag
