Item Description
A gorgeous, gemmy and lustrous, renowned "hot" pink tourmaline from the famous, but lesser-known Stewart Mine of California. This 3.6 x 2.4 cm, super striated beauty is a beautiful, intensely color-saturated pink tourmaline, with a partially gray termination. The crystal is very jauntily set in a lustrous and translucent euhedral quartz crystal. The close up photos highlight the vivid pink color saturation! It just glows with color. Old matrix material from the 1950 or 60s and very seldom available in this combination quality.
