An elegant tall crystal of good size for the pocket! Note the extremely sharp, well developed, bipyramidal termination on all crystals! The terminations have a complex pinacoid termination at the very top mm of each bipyramidal termination - very RARE in tourmaline! The transparency is total - you can read right through the green zones! There is a small white zone at the very tip, too. Like a pyramid, adding an accent atop. This piece, like the others, just GLOWS with color and is really quite stunning and different from any of the more typical Pech tourmalines you may have seen before.
