A 214-gram, very sharp and complete tourmaline from the famous Stewart Mine, with an identifying thin gem cap of blue color. It has to be backlit to see it - and this is admittedly a dark crystal, but it is there as a discrete layer atop the darker core. For the size and form, this is a good locality piece.
