Item Description
A large, sparkly combination piece with horizontal crystals of tourmaline to 3 cm that appear to have literally been frozen into the matrix of cleavelandite as both formed together. Note that some crystals are broken and this is primarily a decorative specimen, rather than a fine piece in crystallographic terms
