Here is an impressive, glassy, polychrome Tourmaline crystal from the gem pegmatites of Dara-I-Pech in Afghanistan with an unusually fine termination. That’s another combination of Tourmaline and Albite. The Albite on Tourmaline is perfectly situated and makes a very nice contrast. I would say one thing about this specimen that it is flawless in terms of aesthetics, quality, and beauty. The main crystal has one repair, however clipped fit and display incredibly. It has a very nice open color with sharp termination and lovely snow albite attached all around the piece.
