Item Description
A pretty, gemmy and lustrous, bi-colored tourmaline from the famous Pederneira Mine and the Schlichter Collection. The very glassy, well-striated crystal has a rich, pretty pink base, which includes a gem nodule. The middle section is a very gemmy light teal-blue to nearly achroite/colorless. The triangular crystal is translucent, with a darker teal-blue shade below the interestingly etched/frosted termination. Pristine. 12 grams. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
