Watermelon Tourmaline Slices (matched pair)

Item Description

Here we have a gorgeous matched pair of fine quality, classic "watermelon" Tourmaline slices from the famous Himalaya Mine in San Diego County, California. The slices have been polished on both sides and with the exception of some very minor inclusions, they are quite gemmy (nearly water clear in areas). These are true "watermelon" Tourmalines in the sense that they have a green outer "rind" and a pink interior. Some people will try to say that a "watermelon" Tourmaline is any combination of pink and green, but it's these slices with this particular color arrangement that will always be the actual definition of the term. They eve have a tiny bit of white/colorless zoning between the pink and green, just a like real slice of watermelon. You rarely see good gem quality Tourmalines on the market from his historic mine, let alone a fantastic matched pair of slices like this, so don't miss out on picking up these wonderful and alluring pieces for a great price. This set was priced at $1,285.00 high retail.
