California tourmaline, particularly from the historic Himalaya Mine in San Diego County, has a well-documented collector following and a distinct character tied to that pegmatite deposit, which can add provenance interest to finished work. Tourmaline has no cleavage, which makes it relatively forgiving to work with, though the crystals can carry internal stress and care with heat application is advisable.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gem Enthusiast","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47922619416763,"sku":"CT104","price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0639\/8214\/1627\/files\/green-3mm-california-tourmaline-lot-033ct-american-gemstone-ct104-9257608.jpg?v=1780602250","url":"https:\/\/gementhusiast.shop\/products\/green-3mm-california-tourmaline-lot-55107","provider":"Gem Enthusiast","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
