Item Description
Pink tourmalines are a Himalaya Mine classic and this cute miniature is from the Bill Larson Collection. The sculptural, parallel-growth crystal is highly lustrous, well-striated and the termination area is gemmier. Subtle shades of pink are evident in the crystal. The steep pyramidal termination and bit of cleavelandite at the base add character. Pristine. 8 grams.
