Smoky Quartz w/ gem Tourmaline xls (classic locale)

Item Description

Beautiful, gem, grass-green tourmaline crystals are strikingly embedded on all sides of this sharply terminated smoky quartz crystal from the famous Cruzeiro Mine. The embedded elbaites reach 4.3 cm long, BUT there is a 4.5 cm crystal included in one side of the quartz (both ends poke out). The glassy smoky is transparent to translucent. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only trivial bruising. This is a dramatic and excellent 360-dergree combination old-timer from the 1960s or 70s. It looks great on multiple sides without aid or can be displayed vertically with equal effect. Valued at $1500
