A beautiful, gemmy and lustrous, bi-colored, sceptered green tourmaline with a pink base and striking pyramidal termination with intriguing etched faces. There is even a hint of teal-blue in the termination. This fine, uncommon and older crystal is from the Barra de Salinas pegmatites of Brazil and the Steve Smale Collection. Pristine and complete-all-around. Weighs 11 grams.
