AFTER HOURS
Natural micro-faceted AAA tourmaline necklace
The evening is yours.
Cognac, champagne, rose, and several shades of green. Some stones are pale enough to let the light through; others deepen almost to black. The tiny facets catch the light as you move.
A little pink comes forward, then a warm brown, then green again. There is pleasure in following the colours, in noticing something you missed a moment ago.
They bring to mind a room after the guests have gone. A little cognac left in a glass. Flowers in a vase. You can still hear music from somewhere.
The necklace sits close to the collarbones, its fine line of colour resting against the skin. You might find yourself wearing it well into the evening, forgetting it is there until it catches the light.
Natural, untreated AAA tourmaline. All this colour, already within the stone.
Stay a little longer.

A Note on Natural Gemstones
Each tourmaline bead has its own variations in colour, translucency and internal character. Natural inclusions and subtle differences in shape are part of the stone’s individual character.
Photography & Colour
