Crystal Sand- Black Tourmaline, 40g

Black Tourmaline, or Schorl, is a form of tourmaline that ranges from black to very dark green. Specimens considered "lower quality" are often more brittle and contain neat inclusions such as quartz, hematite, mica, and iron. High quality specimens are shinier but do not have inclusions of other minerals. Black tourmaline does not need cleansing or charging.

This crystal sand is made of finely ground crystal particles that can be used for candle dressings, wearing inside a talisman or mojo bag, for cleansing your crystals or talismans, or in apothecary such as a body scrub. It is also a great altar decoration, for crystal grids, or for burning herbs in your cauldron. Housed in a delightful reusable apothecary jar with cork top.
