Item Description

A most striking and highly unusual tourmaline combination specimen from Mogok. Very pretty pink, lustrous and translucent, tourmaline crystals to 1.5 cm are embedded in a large partially etched, very sharp, two-toned, feldspar crystal. A 2.3 cm, glassy quartz crystal is a super accent. The contacted back of the piece is out of sight. The form and style of this piece, is indeed, dramatic with the multitude of tourmaline crystals. Very rare in this combination form and from an uncommon Mogok locale. Ex Will Larson Collection. Valued at $500.
