Item Description

A lovely Tourmaline crystal from Pakistan. At first glance, it would appear that the entire crystal is black and opaque, but with strong backlighting, one can see that the center is very dark green. Along with being a fairly stout / thick crystal, this particular Tourmaline has a very attractive termination with notable striations and broad faces. Found in 2002, is a really cool example of how interesting the Tourmalines can be from Pakistan.
