Strand of faceted round beads 1,8 mm in natural multicolor Tourmaline

A strand of about 38 cm of 1.8 mm faceted multicolored tourmaline beads. From a distance, the colors blend into a fine speckled pattern; up close, each bead reveals its own shade.

Features :

  • Stone : natural multicolored tourmaline
  • Shape : faceted round
  • Size : about 1.8 mm
  • Hole : about 0.5 mm
  • Strand length : about 38 cm
  • Quantity : about 185 beads per strand
  • Color : multicolored, varied shades depending on the beads
  • Treatment : none

At this size, tourmaline is well suited to very fine strands, layered necklaces, bracelets on silk thread, and jewellery finishing. The hole is fine, about 0.5 mm: plan on a 0.2 to 0.3 mm nylon thread or a silk thread, with a fine needle. The same stone is available in 4 mm beads.

A bit of gemology : tourmaline forms in long, striated prisms along its length, often zoned in several colors. It is piezoelectric and pyroelectric: when pressed or heated, it builds up an electrical charge and attracts dust, a property that already intrigued Dutch merchants in the 18th century. It also shows marked dichroism, with its color changing according to the viewing angle. Its hardness reaches 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale.

In lithotherapy : it is associated with the heart chakra. Undoubtedly because of its variety of colors, it is believed to have a harmonizing and soothing effect.

100% natural product : the size, shape, shade, and number of beads may vary slightly from one strand to another. The dimensions and quantities are given for guidance only.

Guide to good practices for caring for your jewelry

Guide to good practices for caring for your jewelry

Few objects are imperishable and last over time. Your jewelry, regardless of price or composition, will live with you and thus show signs of aging. This is perfectly normal and does not call the quality into question.

Here are some tips to keep them in the best condition for as long as possible.

  • Remove your jewelry before washing, bathing, and during beauty routines (cream, perfume...). This will help preserve the gold plating in good condition and not damage the Gemstones. Rest assured, the Prémium Perles Corner metals are of very good quality and will survive occasional exposure to water.
  • Avoid chemical products. Contrary to what one might think, doing the dishes, swimming in chlorinated water... does not go well with metals and stones.
  • Be sure to store your jewelry properly. When you are not wearing them, we recommend storing your jewelry in a case, a suede pouch, a zip bag, and especially not in a humid room like the bathroom.
  • Clean your jewelry with soapy water. Avoid chemical products or toothpaste, which could be too harsh for metals and stones. Regular maintenance, once a month, is sufficient. Be sure to dry them well afterward.

In conclusion, your jewelry, like all things, are objects that need attention and respect so you can enjoy them for as long as possible. With these few tips, they should accompany you for years!
