Watermelon Tourmaline Necklace
Watermelon tourmaline is one of those stones that looks almost too good to be real — blush pink at the center, fading into green at the edges, like a slice of the fruit it's named for. This necklace strings together faceted watermelon tourmaline beads, each one approximately 3mm, so the color shifts and catches light with every movement. Three cubic zirconia crystals are scattered through the strand, adding bright diamond-like flashes that play off the tourmaline's natural warmth.
The chain and findings are 14k gold filled — not plated, not vermeil — which means the gold layer is substantially thicker and far more durable for everyday wear. The color won't fade on your skin.
It arrives ready to wear at 16 inches with a 1-inch extender, so you can adjust between 16 and 17 inches depending on the neckline. If you need a different length entirely, just leave a note at checkout and Kate will make it to your measurements.
This is unquestionably a summer necklace — the color pop is undeniable — but the combination of cool tones and warm gold means it layers just as well under a winter sweater. Tourmaline is also October's birthstone, which makes this a genuinely special gift for anyone with an autumn birthday.
Every piece is handmade by Kate in her Florida studio. No two are identical.

At Kate Koel, each piece is a handcrafted fusion of organic nature and fine metalwork. we meticulously select premium, jewelry-grade materials to ensure your collection offers both enduring beauty and a luxurious, comfortable fit for daily wear.
14k Gold-Filled (Premium Quality)
Unlike standard gold plating—which is a thin "dip" that can flake or wear off—our 14k Gold-Filled pieces are created through a sophisticated mechanical bonding process. A thick, solid layer of real 14k gold is heat-fused to a premium jeweler’s brass core. The result is a high-luster, tarnish-resistant finish that contains 100x more gold than plated alternatives. Built for longevity, these pieces are designed to maintain their brilliant glow for decades.
.925 Sterling Silver
A timeless precious metal celebrated for its cool, brilliant glow and exceptional durability. For those seeking depth, we offer an oxidized finish with a soft blackened patina—perfect for adding a touch of mystery to your ring stack or mixing effortlessly with your gold favorites.
The Signature "Crystals"
Our signature focal pieces are miniature galleries of nature. We meticulously hand-set semi-precious gemstones, real dried botanicals, and authentic Swarovski crystals in professional-grade, UV-stable resin.
