Item Description

A gorgeous, gemmy and lustrous, bi-colored tourmaline from the famous Himalaya Mine. Most of this beautiful doubly terminated gem (a specimen number is on the bottom) has the classic "Himalaya pink" color. The pink rind covers the water-clear section of light olive-green, giving it an eerie look. The nifty modified pinacoida termination has a lustrous, matte finish. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only trivial termination edge and one spot of side wear near the termination. A very fine gemmy bi-colored tourmaline from the Himalaya. 6 grams. BETTER IN PERSON!!
