Item Description

A nice combo specimen from Shengus featuring a fine quality, highly lustrous, well-formed, jet-black trigonal prism of Schorl Tourmaline sitting on a lustrous, sharp, blocky white crystal of Albite with minor accenting foliated hexagonal blades of Muscovite. No damage, outside of the base of the piece where it was separated from the pocket wall. Very showy, great quality and a lovely small miniature example of these classic Schorls from one of the most well-known Pakistani pegmatite localities.
