Description

This superb tourmaline exemplifies the species’ finest qualities—intense color, exceptional clarity, and refined crystal form. The crystal displays a rich, saturated open-leaf green that transitions seamlessly into a delicate pink, a classic and highly desirable palette rendered here with remarkable vibrancy. Its transparent, gemmy interior allows light to pass through effortlessly, giving the piece a luminous, jewel-like presence. The faces exhibit high, glassy luster, and the crystal terminates in a perfectly formed, sharply defined point with outstanding brilliance and color concentration. Every angle reveals a level of polish and symmetry that speaks to the piece’s superb natural development. Immaculate and completely free of damage, this is an exemplary tourmaline for the discerning collector—an elegant, vividly colored crystal that captures the species at its most refined.
