Item Description
A gorgeous emerald-green gem tourmaline from the famous Cruzeiro Mine. The limpid glassy beauty has very few internal refractions and the interesting darker complex pyramidal termination with lustrous, frosted/etched faces adds character. Complete all-around and nearly pristine. One edge of the termination is dinged, but is out-of-sight on the primary display view. This is classic and desirable color for this noted locale and dates to the 1960s or 70s finds. Ex Art Soregaroli Collection. 17.88 carats mass.
