Item Description
A very unusual tourmaline specimen from the famous Cruzeiro Mine! This is a doubly terminated, floater, tapered fan of parallel-growth, gemmy and lustrous, olive-green tourmaline crystals! The angled sidecar tourmaline crystal appendages are indeed, striking. This amazing tourmaline specimen is pristine, except for the broken ends of the "sidecar" crystals. Very rare in my experience of Cruzeiro tourmalines. Older material. 20 grams. Ex Schlichter Collection.
