Each cube bead displays the stone's signature colouring: pink at the centre, green at the edge, a gradient that mirrors the fruit it is named for and is produced by a shift in trace elements during crystal growth. No two beads are identical. AAA-grade watermelon tourmaline cube beads at 4 mm alternate with 3 mm gold-plated brass cube accents along the strand, and the result is a necklace where the eye moves from bead to bead, each one a slightly different expression of the same extraordinary phenomenon. At 40 cm with a 4 cm extension, it is a piece that asks to be worn and looked at closely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatermelon Tourmaline: Nature at Its Most Precise\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTourmaline is one of the most chemically complex minerals in the gemstone world, and watermelon tourmaline represents its most celebrated colour combination. The pink-to-green gradient within a single crystal is produced by changes in the trace element composition of the mineralising fluid during the crystal's growth, a process that occurs over millions of years in pegmatite formations and results in a colour transition that is perfectly natural and entirely unrepeatable from stone to stone. The finest watermelon tourmaline comes from Brazil, Nigeria, and parts of East Africa, and AAA-grade specimens are selected for the clarity and definition of their colour zones rather than simply for their overall colour saturation. A necklace of these beads is a collection of small geological events, each one distinct.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWearing KALEA Watermelon Tourmaline\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis necklace deserves to be worn where people can see it up close. At 40 cm it sits at a length where the individual bead character is visible in conversation, and the pink-to-green gradient reads most clearly in natural daylight. Layer it with the DEYA gold chain at a shorter length for a clean gold frame, or wear it alone when the stone is the only story you want to tell. The KALEA Watermelon Tourmaline Bracelet makes a natural wrist companion, and the NERA Chrysoprase Earrings provide a fresh green ear pairing that echoes the green edge of the tourmaline without repeating it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGemstone:\u003c\/strong\u003e AAA-grade watermelon tourmaline cube beads, 4 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccents:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass cube beads, 3 mm, with thick 18k gold plating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClasp \u0026amp; findings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thick 18k gold plating on brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 cm with a 4 cm adjustable extension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom lengths available at hello@opaze-studio.com\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep away from perfume, chemicals, and prolonged moisture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in your Opaze pouch when not wearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArrives in an Opaze gift box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Opaze-boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49263889482004,"sku":"","price":169.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/2383\/7204\/files\/984D1CF7-A3D5-425C-A051-06482260298F.jpg?v=1750008722","url":"https:\/\/opaze-studio.com\/pt\/products\/collier-kalea-tourmaline-melon-deau","provider":"Opaze Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
