A RARE, CLASSIC, OLD-TIME specimen of glassy and lustrous green tourmaline crystals in sparkly, off-white dolomite matrix from the alpine clefts of Campolungo, Tessin, Switzerland. The tourmaline crystals fluoresce yellow and the piece comes with three, old German labels. One of the crystals is cleaved, but this is a very RARE and SIGNIFICANT OLD-TIMER. It is extremely rich and fine, according to the literature, and I have never even seen one in person. 9.0 x 7.1 x 5.2 cm
