Nature's Asprin— October Tourmaline
A colour for every mood.
October’s birthstone is famous for its extraordinary spectrum — from vivid greens and electric blues to pinks, reds and golden tones.
Nature’s aspirin — a kaleidoscope of soothing hues.
Few gemstones rival tourmaline for variety. Its name comes from turmali, a Sinhalese word associated with mixed or many-coloured stones.
Different trace elements create this remarkable palette, sometimes producing more than one colour within a single crystal. From the watermelon-striped pink green tourmalines to the neon blue-green of Paraíba, they are found all over the world, most notably Brazil, Afghanistan and Africa.
Tourmaline has long been associated with balance, beauty and peace — perhaps fitting for a gemstone with so many different personalities.
The October Tourmalines
Vermilion takes October’s expression of balance, peace and beauty to pair tourmalines of differing hues and intensities — from icy Paraíba blues and forest greens to soft pinks and glowing gold.
