A sizeable and unrepaired tourmaline (at 7 cm and 38.7 grams), with fine pink color, unusually good clarity and a good termination on top. It is distinguished by having (from the side view) a "bent" appearance, apparently due to natural processes in which it was broken and rehealed a couple of times in the pocket during its growth. This is quite common at the Himlaya in particular. 7 x 1.8 x 1.5 cm
