This is an elegant cluster of unusually blue-zoned tourmalines with a surprising, gemmy (transparent to translucent) termination. Crystals to 4 cm. No repairs. From the IKONS book author Wayne Thompson's personal collection of Miniatures/Thumbnails built with his daughter, Stevia, when she was young. It is an older specimen obtained in Wayne's longtime dealings with Afghani-Pakistani minerals since the 1980s. Laszlo Kupi photo.
