Gemmy bi-colored Tourmalines (Strauss Coll.)

Item Description

An aesthetic, sculptural and colorful tourmaline crystal cluster from Afghanistan and the Uwe Strauss Collection. Beautiful, gemmy and lustrous, bi-colored, pastel-pink and beautiful mint-green crystals are dramatically clustered atop the mounded matrix of smaller tourmalines and lepidolite crystals. The impressive, gem, separate 4.0 cm, doubly terminated pretty mint-green and pink crystal with the pyramidal termination and striking, contrasting, stepped-growth, mostly pink pinacoidal crystals add real presence to this fascinating 360-degree specimen. Complete all-around and nearly pristine. You barely notice the bit of bruising to the edge of the uppermost flattop pink crystal. A choice and artistic specimen.
