Item Description
A 4.7 cm, pristine, gorgeous, gemmy and lustrous, bi-colored tourmaline is very aesthetically attached to the side of two, intergrown, quartz crystals from Pech, Afghanistan. The tourmaline body is a beautiful, vivid pink and both ends are very complimentary, multi-hued green. The glassy, primary quartz crystal is complete all-around, is contacted on one side, with no damage, per se and has trivial termination wear. The smaller quartz crystal is complete in the front and back is cleaved. This fine combo piece displays beautifully and would be a fine addition to a collection.
