Black Tourmaline Power Point

Black tourmaline is a black boron silicate mineral (schorl) traditionally associated with protection and grounding. This power point is a single polished, faceted point of deep, opaque black tourmaline, roughly 80–120g, cut to focus and direct energy — a solid, grounding piece for a desk, altar, or crystal grid.

Quick facts

Meaning & history

In crystal tradition, black tourmaline is the classic stone of protection and grounding, often kept near a workspace or entryway as a steadying presence. Power points like this one are popular in grid work and meditation, where the single terminated point is said to focus and direct energy in one direction. It's tied to the Root chakra in most traditions, and pairs well with other pieces from our balance and wellness collection.

How to use it

Set the point on a desk, windowsill, or altar with the tip facing outward or upward, depending on your intention, or use it as an anchor stone at the center of a crystal grid. Some people hold it during meditation, letting the weight and cool surface act as a grounding touchstone. Each point is natural and one of a kind — color, surface, and exact size vary from piece to piece, so yours will be unique and may differ slightly from the photo.

Care & cleansing

Black tourmaline is naturally durable (Mohs 7–7.5), but its included, striated surface can still dull or pit with heavy chemical exposure or long soaking. Wipe it clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, and give it only a brief rinse under lukewarm water if needed — skip prolonged soaking and skip salt (dry or saltwater) cleansing, which can damage the surface over time. Keep it away from direct sun for long periods and store it apart from harder stones that could scratch it.
