Item Description
A 54-carat GEM crystal of this most famous of all rubellite finds, from the famous Jonas Pocket of 1978....which many of us still consider to be THE SINGLE FINEST TOURMALINE POCKET OF ALL TIME. This is an iconic, full miniature sized crystal with the classic rich, cranberry-red color and striated prism faces. This is literally a gem (with cutting value). #1750 in the collection, Jack must have purchased this soon after the discovery from Carlos Barbosa (see label) back in the late 1970s. A great article featuring this discovery can be found here: https://www.gia.edu/doc/Gem-Pegmatites-of-Minas-Gerais-Brazil-The-Tourmalines-of-the-Governador-Valadares-District.pdf
