The Black Tourmaline as a Rock of SafetyThe protective radiance of this stone is very strong, if not the strongest. Schorl is said to be so dark that negative energy bounces off its lines. With this black protective stone you always feel on the safe side, which is also why it is always in our house in Switzerland.The protective tourmalineView the piece“The clear quartz strengthens the protection and the radiant blossoming that are already powerful in verdelite.”

The Tourmaline Quartz PointsWhen the power of crystals can gather in one or two points, and our subconscious understands this, our points, towers and double terminators create a special energy in their surroundings. The focus on a strong mind, inner clarity and self-worth grows stronger.Black tourmaline has an exceptionally strong protective effect.View the piece“The clear quartz strengthens the protection and the inner unfolding that are already powerful in watermelon tourmaline.”

The Green and Protective Landscape of Tourmaline QuartzAs the name says, watermelon tourmaline carries the colours of a watermelon, though it sometimes takes a trained eye to see it. That is why this selection is led by our Swiss mineralogists. Here you see a special selection of our watermelon tourmalines on tourmaline quartz of the best quality.
Green tourmaline is one of the special and rare semi-precious stones. It has a beautiful green colour and was selected to the Swiss standard of quality.Unlike many other black stones, it does not absorb negative energies coming from outside, but leads them away from you, much like a lightning rod.View the piece“Through its layers and its deep, dark colour, black tourmaline prevents the absorption of negative energy.”

Crystals from Lemuria, Madagascar
Lemuria is one of the oldest continents of our planet, and so it holds the oldest crystals of our earth. An extraordinary power of Lemuria dwells in them, open to us in every kind of inclusion, form, growth feature and vibration. The meaning of these crystals for our earth is so closely bound to the history of our planet that it is hardly graspable for our imagination. Sometimes the beauty of these crystals alone amazes us, yet the great story of how they came to be is all the more astonishing. That is why Mineralienzentrum is so proud to present these crystals to you.
