Item Description
A cute thumbnail "mushroom tourmaline" from the small find at Mogok about 10 years ago. The lavender, trigonal, translucent bladed "cap" is vivid, rich pink when backlit and rises up from the partially covered "stem" of black schorl tourmaline. Scarce on the market today. An outstanding and pristine example from the Herb Obodda Collection # 4414.
