A small Limited Edition group of gold pendants, I am offering.
One-of-a-kind gem Watermelon Tourmaline 14k gold crystal pendant.
Tourmalines are formed in areas where volcanoes have produced magma. This magma is cooled, with large empty cracks. The cracks will then be naturally filled with water and minerals such as iron, lithium or magnesium. Over time, these will then turn into crystals of tourmaline.
The term tourmaline was derived from the Singhalese phrase tura mali, meaning “stone mixed with vibrant colors”, and the watermelon prefix refers to the unique color combination that resembles the fruit of the same name.
“As the crystal grows, it uses the elements that fit most easily within the lattice. As these elements in the solution are depleted, other elements are substituted and the color of the crystal changes.” Brazil is famous for its gem-quality watermelon tourmalines, with amazingly clear and vibrant colors.
Watermelon tourmaline crystals tend to form with a distinctive rounded triangular shape, as demonstrated beautifully in this stunning pendant.

Cutting the stone into slices like a loaf of bread rather than faceting the rough often enhances the resemblance to a real watermelon. Their complex structure makes tourmalines very difficult to cut. A great deal of expertise is required to identify areas of tension within the stone, which can cause it to crack during the cutting process.
The 'Mastery Series'.
There exists a form of power and intelligence that represents the high point of human potential. It is the source of the greatest achievements and discoveries in history.
It is an intelligence that is not taught in our schools nor analyzed by professors, but almost all of us, at some point, have had glimpses of it in our own experience when we work intensely on a project or under a deadline — under pressure to get results, ideas seem to come to us out of nowhere;
These powers are something that great masters in all fields experience over long periods of time, and it comes to them through a process of learning and experimentation.
It is a path that all of us can follow. I discovered the elements of this process many years ago, a process of intense study of powerful.
All of us have access to this higher form of intelligence, one that can allow us to see more of the world, to anticipate trends, to respond with speed and accuracy to any circumstance. This intelligence is cultivated by deeply immersing ourselves in a field of study and staying true to our inclinations, no matter how unconventional our approach might seem to others.
