Blue tourmalines, often referred to as “indicolite,” are a beautiful variety of the mineral tourmaline that displays shades of blue. The intensity and range of blue colors in these gemstones can vary widely, from light sky blue to deep navy blue. The presence of different trace elements and variations in the crystal structure contribute to the various blue hues found in blue tourmalines.
Some blue tourmalines may also exhibit pleochroism, which means they can display different colors when viewed from different angles. To enhance their color and appearance, blue tourmalines are often cut into various shapes, such as oval, emerald, or cushion cuts, and are used in jewelry like rings, pendants, and earrings.
Blue tourmalines are highly prized for their striking color and can be a valuable addition to gemstone collections and jewelry designs.
