Item Description

A nice doubly-terminated, near "floater" polychrome Tourmaline from the most famous Tourmaline locality in Pakistan. This piece features several colors ranging from a soft yellow basal termination which gives way to a lovely green color, and a very dark (almost black) green hue throughout the majority of the specimen which gives way to a nearly colorless "Achroite" termination on the other end. It should be noted that yellow is the rarest color for Tourmaline. Only a tiny bit of roughness, but otherwise good condition.
