The two colors can either be evenly intermixed throughout the crystal, or they might show concentric bands of color. Bicolor Tourmaline is a unique miracle of color. Often two or more colors are found in a single tourmaline crystal making a bi-color tourmaline. Bicolor Tourmaline has become a favorite in jewelry because it is available in so many colors. The prices, uses and value of bi-color tourmaline vary tremendously, depending on the size and quality of the gemstone. Bicolor tourmaline is a special variety of the mineral species tourmaline. Tourmaline is one of the most colorful gems found in nature, with an incredible range of colors produced by different conditions during its growth and formation.
