Item Description
A super-gem crystal of elbaite from Barra de Salinas, a limpid green from top to bottom, with a strange hot pink "thread" running down one side (hold it under a good light if you win this gem and you will see this pink thread light up like hot pink neon!). Nice clean termination, some minor edge-wear. Weighs 14 grams. (ex. Steve Smale Coll., from late 1980s)
