Black Tourmaline Tower
₹2,001
Natural stone · lab-checkedA polished black tourmaline tower, matte-dark with fine lengthwise striations still showing under the shine, dense and cool in the hand. The guard stone, Dadi called it, for holding the day's noise and other people's moods at the threshold, and stood upright as a tower it marks a steady point for a room to settle around. Many keep one near the front door, the desk, or the phone, point upward. Keep it away from water: the iron in it can rust and the surface flake, so dust it dry and rest it on selenite or in the moonlight a little more often than your other stones, since its whole work is soaking things up. Natural tourmaline, each tower a little different in its grain.

Questions about this stone
Black tourmaline is the guard stone. Dadi kept a piece by the front door, to hold the day's noise and other people's moods on the doorstep. Many keep one near the entrance, the desk, or the phone. Old protective lore, kept up because it helps people feel a little more settled.
Real black tourmaline is matte to lightly shiny, with fine lengthwise grooves running down it like a bundle of rods, and it feels dense in the hand. Its edges are brittle. A too-glossy, too-light, perfectly smooth “crystal” is usually black glass or resin.
Keep it away from water: the iron in it can rust and the surface can flake. Dust it dry, leave it on selenite or out under the moon, and it is ready again. Cleanse it a little more often than your other stones, since its whole work is soaking things up.
