Item Description

A beautiful, gemmy and lustrous cluster of parallel-growth tourmaline crystals from the famed Barra de Salinas pegmatites and the Steve Smale Collection. It very interesting, that only one of the crystals has the classic watermelon pink core below the pretty emerald-green terminations. Complete all-around and pristine. Classic, older material. 5 grams.
