Black Tourmaline Column
Black Tourmaline Column
Description
This black tourmaline statement piece features strong vertical striations and a naturally elongated form that gives it a bold, architectural presence. Elevated on a minimal metal stand, the crystal reads as both sculptural and grounding, with a matte-to-satin surface that emphasizes its linear texture and depth. The scale and clarity of the formation make this a striking collector piece designed to anchor a space.
Black tourmaline, also known as schorl, is valued for its distinctive columnar growth and natural striations that run the length of each crystal. Well-formed specimens of this size are less common, particularly those that retain a clean, uninterrupted structure suitable for display as a freestanding object.
Black tourmaline is often associated with grounding, protection, and energetic stability. It is commonly chosen for spaces intended to feel anchored and resilient, making it well suited for entryways, offices, or areas where a strong sense of presence is desired.

Note
All crystals and ceramic works offered by Atelier Lithic are inherently unique. Variations in size, colour, surface texture, and form are natural and should be expected.
Crystals are natural materials formed in the earth and may include surface irregularities such as natural fissures, internal veils, growth marks, contact points from where the crystal was attached to the host rock, or areas where the specimen was mined or extracted. These features are part of the crystal’s natural formation and are not considered defects. Defects are disclosed within the item description.
For crystals:
- When a listing includes numbered options (for example, 001, 002, etc.), each number corresponds to a specific crystal shown in the photos. Selecting a number means you will receive that exact crystal.
- When a crystal is shown as a group or range and sold as a quantity of one without numbered options, the images represent examples of what is available. You will receive one crystal, selected from the group, with natural variation.
For ceramics:
- All ceramic pieces are one of a kind. Unless otherwise stated, you will receive the exact piece shown in the listing photos.
