Probably from the Pederneira Mine, this is an extraordinary doubly terminated elbaite, although it has been polished to be so smooth on the ends, I am sure - still a pretty "art object" that came with this collection and was surely sold as legit at one time. First of all, it is transparent with a cranberry core surrounded by a light green exterior. It also has superb luster!
