A SUPERB, doubly-terminated tourmaline crystal from the Himalaya Mine, out of the Russell Jones collection. It has a super pyramidal termination, interesting and unusual in that the faces are silky, with glass-smooth bevels where they meet! This crystal is quite gemmy for the Himalaya. It is mostly a fine bright pink, with a hint of green towards the middle. Excellent luster. This fine gem crystal weighs 24 grams.
