Item Description
Sparkling, gemmy and lustrous, bottle-green uvite tourmaline crystals to 1.0 cm richly cover the uvite and magnesite matrix. A field of and scattered magnesite crystals adds striking color contrast. The density of uvites is way above average on this showy piece from the 1990s finds from the famous Brumado area of Brazil. Classic and desirable material.
