MINERALIA CLUJ - FALL EXHIBITION 2024

  The Ethnographic Museum of Transylvania, an institution subordinated to the Cluj County Council, is hosting the Mineralia Autumn Salon, from October 4-6, 2024. Each time, the Mineralia Salon is organized around a stone. This edition is dedicated to tourmaline. Tourmaline, also known as the "colored stone", was first brought to Europe in the early 18th century, when the Dutch brought samples from Sri-Lanka due to the high demand for gemstones for jewelry. Tourmaline has become highly prized for the wonderful colors it offers (there are even multicolored stones), and its name is also related to this aspect of color diversity - "turamali" (mixed colors). Although it is not one of the 4 gemstones, tourmaline has nowadays come to compete with them. Whether it is green, pink, yellow, blue or black, due to its special transparency and brilliance, jewelry made from this mineral is exquisite.
