Treasure your Tourmaline - Pledge It Don’t Sell It!
Tourmaline is a popular gemstone that first appeared in the Western world in 1703, when the Dutch began importing them from Sri Lanka. Originally given the name Turamali, meaning mixed colours, this favoured gemstone has become an essential component of Western jewellery design.
The value of these stones has at least tripled over the last few years and Tourmaline owners may find their valuables are worth more than they might expect. At Borro.com we lend against this treasured stone, our rates are extremely competitive and you can be assured that higher value loans will not be found anywhere else.
Tourmaline is notable for the electrical charge it produces. It is the only mineral to show permanent electricity on the earth, and is also a natural source of negative ions and far infrared rays.
It is reputed to be beneficial in improving circulation, relieving stress, increasing mental alertness and strengthening the immune system, explaining why its use is promoted widely in the health and beauty industry.
There are three main types of tourmaline, classifiable by the dominant proportion of particular elements: iron tourmaline (schorl), black in colour; magnesium tourmaline (dravite), brown; and alkali tourmaline, which may be pink (rubellite), green (Brazilian emerald), or colourless (achroite).
Many tourmalines consist of two, three or more colours, and the best known colour combination is the watermelon tourmaline - displaying a pink centre with a green rim, evocative of the cross-section of a watermelon.
