The origin and special features of red tourmaline
Red tourmaline , often called rubellite, belongs to the large tourmaline family and is particularly known for its bright red to pink color. This is caused by manganese inclusions in the crystal. Particularly beautiful specimens come from countries such as Brazil, Madagascar, Pakistan, and Nigeria.
Red tourmaline is not only a visual highlight—it is also one of the most sought-after healing stones. Its powerful aura makes it a popular companion for meditation, everyday wear, or as a protective stone on the bedside table. Its use in high-quality jewelry is also widespread.
