The Jolie Bracelet is a attention-getting tourmaline bracelet.  How appropriate that the word “Jolie” means pretty.

What really stands out with this tourmaline stone bracelet is the stone itself.  Not to mention the accent pieces surrounding it.  Argentium silver leaves and clusters of “berries”  only enhance it’s beauty.  Definitely the focal point.  Both leaves and berries have been oxidized to really make them “POP”.  Notice how your eyes are drawn to the remarkable blue tourmaline.  Next, notice the colors.  Not only will you find soft blue hues but deep ocean blues as well.  You’ll also see hints of turquoise.  Parts of the stone have a beautiful translucency while other parts are more opaque.

In addition to being the focal point it also serves as the clasp.  Which is a toggle design.  

Clusters of gemstones connect the clasp to two half bangle bracelets.

These clusters are made up of rubies which are a deep, rich red.  You’ll also see petite blue tourmalines.  Add in softly hued citrine gemstones and the result is simply splendid. 

Other than the bezel, all pieces have been handcrafted from Argentium silver.  It measures 7 inches.  

The Jolie Bracelet is a one-of-a-kind piece and will dress up any style.  

Perhaps you’d like to match a pair of earrings or maybe a necklace.  Take a look at The Tia Earrings or maybe The Teagan Necklace.  Either would make a stunning choice.

“How common is Blue Tourmaline?”

Per AJS Gems…”Though tourmaline occurs in virtually every color, blue is in fact the rarest tourmaline color. The blue tourmaline that has attracted the most attention is the rare paraiba variety that was first discovered in Brazil in 1989, and then later in Nigeria and Mozambique. These gems, colored by copper, have an unusual neon-like quality that is coveted by collectors.

But all blue tourmaline is rare, even the non-copper-bearing specimens. The so-called Indicolite tourmaline, colored by iron, can vary from a light to a deep blue. Like most tourmaline, it is strongly pleochroic, meaning it shows different hues when viewed from different directions. An Indicolite will appear significant darker when viewed down the C-axis of the crystal and this must be taken into account when cutting the material. Poor cutting can result in a loss of transparency and brilliance, especially in darker specimens.”
