The incredible, scintillating, cranberry-red color saturation on this gemmy and lustrous polished tourmaline slice is stunning. This is old-time, very high quality and very rare for the color material from the famed Dunton Mine of Maine. The outer rind is, in fact, a very interesting accent to this amazing tourmaline slice. Ex. Robert Whitmore Collection. Weighs 47 grams.
