A gorgeous, gemmy and lustrous bi-colored, cranberry cored with dark green tourmaline crystal on a colorless quartz crystal from a classic Brazilian locality. We think there is one clean repair of the tourmaline, where it is attached to the quartz crystal and an embedded stalk of the tourmaline itself. Old material, and very showy! 4.1 x 4.0 x 3.8 cm
