Tourmaline on Cleavelandite

This natural specimen features a stunning bi-color Tourmaline crystal beautifully set on a delicate Cleavelandite matrix from Afghanistan’s famed pegmatite deposits. The Tourmaline displays a striking gradient of color—often transitioning from soft pinks or vibrant greens to deeper saturated tones highlighting its clarity, internal zoning, and sharply terminated form. Fine vertical striations catch the light, giving the crystal a brilliant reflective quality. The Cleavelandite, with its bladed, snow-white crystal clusters, provides an elegant contrast that enhances the Tourmaline’s vivid hues and graceful shape. Together, they create a visually harmonious and highly collectible mineral arrangement. Celebrated for both its rarity and aesthetic appeal, this specimen exemplifies the exceptional quality associated with Afghanistan’s world-class Tourmaline discoveries.
