A beautiful and gemmy example of tourmaline from one of North America’s premier localities for the species. This miniature features excellent clarity and luster. Purple lepidolite crystals make for a classic combo. A must have for tourmaline, California, or US collectors. Terminated only on the bottom, as photographed, but displays very well either way.
