Item Description
Two, beautiful, gemmy and lustrous, parallel-growth, raspberry-red, rubellite toumalines are aesthetically wrapped in honey-brown lepidolite crystals on this very fine gemstone specimen from Minas Gerais. The gemmier tips are a shade lighter, than the bodies, adding a nice touch. Classic color and Older material, though it came without a label, in style almost certainly from the famous Golconda Mine. Ex Larry Krause Collection. Valued at $1000-1250.
