Item Description

STRIKING and gemmy, this tabular, well-terminated Elbaite Tourmaline is from the famous Cruzeiro Mine in Brazil. The luster is very good, and the emerald green color is excellent all the way through. Naturally, it is contacted at the bottom, but finding a Cruzeiro this imposing for both size and beauty is almost unheard of. This old time piece is likely from the 60s or 70s, and the mass is 129 grams.
