A fine and highly unusual, bi-colored tourmaline from the Himalaya Mine. The classic, Himalaya pink body sharply turns to green. The gemmy and lustrous termination is a strange-looking, multiple parallel-growth with varying lengths of crystals. Older material from the 1970s or 80s. Ex. Jaime Bird Collection.
