October’s birthstone is a pink tourmaline, a semi-precious stone named from the Sinhalese word ‘thormalli’ as these stones are found in Sri Lanka. Tourmalines can vary to almost all colours in the spectrum but pale pink stones are symbolic of wholesome energy, love and matters of the heart and pink tourmaline is believed to help heal old wounds. Embellishing the gold necklace of this elegant petite figure a stunning pink Swarovski® crystal represents a tourmaline reflected in the pale pink floral detail of her gown.
