Indicolite is the blue face of tourmaline, and it is the one collectors chase. Most tourmaline arrives in green, pink, or black; the blue variety turns up rarely enough that a clean specimen is worth building a shelf around. This one comes out of Africa at 1.5 inches and 7 grams — small in the hand, large in presence.

Hold it to a window and the colour shifts with the angle, the way a good tourmaline always does. This is a specimen piece rather than a polished decorative object: what you get is the crystal as the earth made it, with its own striations and terminations intact.

How to use it

Give it a place where light can reach it. Indicolite reads very differently in daylight than under a lamp, and a specimen this size deserves to be seen from more than one angle.

On an altar, it works as a focal stone: something small and precise to rest your attention on at the start of a sitting.

For storage, keep it away from harder stones in the same box. Tourmaline is durable but the fine terminations chip if they knock against quartz.

Indicolite compared with the tourmalines you see more often

Variety Colour How often you meet it
Indicolite Blue to blue-green Rare
Verdelite Green Common
Rubellite Pink to red Occasional
Schorl Black Very common

✨ Temple Tip

Photograph it against something matte and dark rather than white. Blue tourmaline loses its depth on a bright background and comes alive on a dark one — the same is true of where you display it.

Questions & answers

How large is this specimen?

1.5 inches and 7 grams. It sits comfortably in the palm.

Where does it come from?

Africa.

Is it polished?

No. It is a natural mineral specimen with its own surfaces and terminations.

What makes indicolite different from other tourmaline?

Indicolite is the blue variety. Green, pink, and black tourmaline are far more common, which is why blue specimens are collected.

Will my piece look identical to the photos?

This is a natural specimen, so colour saturation and form vary. The photographs show the character you can expect.

A small blue thing that keeps changing the longer you look at it. #TempleOfDesire

In short

The Indicolite Tourmaline Specimen is a natural blue tourmaline mineral specimen by Rare Earth Gallery, sourced from Africa. Indicolite is the blue variety of tourmaline and occurs far less often than the green, pink, and black forms. The piece measures 1.5 inches and weighs 7 grams, and it is unpolished, keeping its own striations and terminations. It costs $91.95 and is sold as a single specimen. Because it is a natural mineral, colour saturation and form vary from piece to piece, and the fine terminations chip if it is stored against harder stones.
