Standing like a rocket ready for blast-off, this eye-catching individual, off-matrix Elbaite tourmaline crystal even has the colours to match - a fiery pink-red base and green upper prism. Fully terminated with a prominent classic three-sided pyramid the main body of the crystal is a very typical Elbaite tourmaline in form and below, its naturally etched narrow 'stem' gives the whole a sceptered form reminiscent of a rocket with flames firing out from its base. Displaying great translucency, with backlighting these bright colours really stand out stunningly well, making this 5.7 cm tall Aricanga mine piece an instant classic. It has one recorded repair. It comes with a custom-made Sunnywood acryllic base allowing it to stand upright in its most dramatic pose.
