This black tourmaline obelisk has six shaped faces and a pointed top, creating a strong, symmetrical silhouette. Measuring approximately 17cm, it makes a substantial feature for a shelf, mantelpiece, desk or collection of mineral specimens.
Black tourmaline is known for its dark appearance and has a long-standing place in crystal traditions. It is often discussed in connection with grounding and protection symbolism, but these are traditional associations rather than established physical effects. Its appeal can be appreciated just as readily through its colour, form and presence.
The obelisk cut turns a naturally occurring gemstone into a deliberately architectural object. Six flat faces catch the light differently as you move around it, while the pointed end gives the piece a clear visual finish. Display it on its own or place it with other stones to create contrast in colour, shape and scale.
A tall, dark gemstone point
At approximately 17cm, this black tourmaline point has enough height to anchor a display without needing an elaborate arrangement around it. It is a characterful choice for collectors who enjoy the darker end of the mineral palette and the clean lines of cut gemstone forms.
