Item Description

Here we have a beautiful crystal of bicolor Tourmaline with lustrous, striated prism faces and good saturation. A RICH cranberry colored basal termination gives way to an odd an alluring silvery-purple hue throughout the rest of the piece. The piece is in decent shape, but it does have some nicks and a separation mark where presumably another crystal once grew. It would make a nice addition to a Tourmaline suite, a gem crystal collection, or a Brazilian collection. Classic material and very attractive from the standpiont of color. Weight is 7.51 grams.
