Tourmalated quartz beads are cut from quartz that is imbued with dark needles of tourmaline. Also known as black hair quartz beads, these beautiful semiprecious beads are in the family of macrocrystalline quartz - that is, quartz with crystals that are large enough to be recognizable with the naked eye. As late as the 16th century, many people thought quartz to be fossilized ice, and quartz is often cool to the touch due to its high thermoconductivity. Quartz is said to be the universal healing stone, and quartz beads are reputed to promote hope, happiness, and optimism. Black tourmaline is a complex silicate of boron and aluminum, and is said to dispel negative energy and bring good luck to its wearer.

Brownish smoky quartz beads are almost always cut from rock crystal quartz that has been heat-treated to produce this coveted color (ours included). Tones of smoky quartz range from yellowish to deep translucent brown. Good specimens of natural untreated smoky quartz do exist, but are difficult to find. Smoky quartz semiprecious beads are also known in the market as cairngorm, Colorado diamond, morion, radium diamond, and smoky citrine. In Sri Lanka, many quartz varieties are called "topaz," including smoky quartz (which is called smoky topaz). The dealers are usually not intending to mislead, but when they say "topaz" they simply mean quartz. Smoky quartz is believed to help ground oneself and remove negativity. It is said to enhance survival instincts, and help wearers reach personal and business goals. Some say smoky quartz is also good for dealing with hyperactivity and attention-deficit disorder.
