Item Description

Often, when Tourmaline is carved, it is because the material is too included to cut for gemstones, so it's really a treat to see a Tourmaline carving that is SO clean like this one! This piece is a very unique, rich green-blue color, masterfully carved Seahorse with great detail an top crystal clarity! The color could almost be classified as "Indicolite" but it has just a little too much green in it. Nonetheless, you have to admire such a great work of art considering that somebody was attentive enough to put such great detail into a smaller carving such as this. This piece could be wire-wrapped into a lovely pendant, or left alone as a great addition to anybody's collection. A truly beautiful little Tourmaline carving. Valued at $921.25 retail.
