Tourmaline (multi-color crystals) with Albite

Item Description

An attractive Tourmaline specimen from the most famous Tourmaline locality in Pakistan. Tourmalines are not terribly common from Pakistan, as all of the major Tourmaline localities are in Afghanistan. This piece features a pair of sharp, lustrous, well-formed Tourmaline crystals with basal terminations, showing attractive blue-green hues on the topmost portion, which grades into a lovely olive-green shade, and then transitions into very dark green and eventually black colors throughout the rest of the crystals. Associated blades of beige colored Albite (var: Cleavelandite) can be seen for a nice touch. No major damage, and good aesthetics.
