black tourmaline  GEMAS BLACK_post blogBlack tourmaline, also known as schorl, is best for defense against negative charges. She is born on a stick, repelling negative energy. It is the only electric stone on the planet that receives electrons from the atmosphere, generating electricity, and is energized by sunlight. It is not widely used in jewelry making because it is too dark and does not allow any transparency to pass through.

OnyxGEMAS BLACK_post blogIt is a variety of agate. Also called "nail stone". Often used to make cameos. Onyx was highly prized for rosary beads (chains). The book The Magic of Kirani, King of Persia (1686) claimed that it was possible to become invisible by wearing an onyx ring. Considered an amulet, it favors self-esteem and decision-making.

The black tone is justified by the presence of iron and magnesium, having been widely adopted in the Stone Age for making sharp instruments and arrowheads. Due to its brilliance and transparency, it has been used as a precious stone for at least 5 years.

Black PearlGEMAS BLACK_post blogThey are the rarest pearls found in nature. Nowadays, these pearls are easier to find due to the mollusc culture process. the name oyster pinctada margaritifera, popularly known as the black-lipped oyster, is the source of black pearls.
