Item Description
Sculptural and striking tourmaline from circa 2010s finds at the renowned Pederneira Mine. The bodies of both of the dramatically crossed very glassy, highly lustrous, well-striated, trigonal, water-clear gem crystals are a beautiful indicolite blue. The termination is crowned and the upper sides are coated with gemmy lilac lepidolite crystals. The 'cross' prism has a pristine matte termination with a broken base. Tiny needle indicolites with tan lepidolites on one side are super accessories. Complete all-around and pristine, this is an adorable gem indicolite tourmaline combination from this famed pegmatite. 13 grams mass.
