Tourmaline Inclusion - Ring L

Black tourmaline was first discovered in the late 19th century in Brazil, but its use dates back much further. In ancient Egypt, it was often called "the stone of life" and was thought to bring good luck and wealth. Egyptians also believed that black tourmaline could help relieve physical pain and even cure certain diseases.

Ancient Greeks wore it as jewelry or carried pieces of it with them to protect themselves from injuries while traveling through dangerous terrain. In the Middle Ages, black tourmaline was re-popularized when people began wearing it as a talisman or amulet for protection against evil spirits.
