A classic Himalaya tourmaline: rich pink bottom with a fine, grassy green termination, with a flat, silky sheen. There is a very shallow depression on one side of the termination that appears to be a pocket damage that was naturally healed within the pocket. The crystal is complete and uncontacted around the sides, with good luster. It is naturally healed on the bottom, so technically has both terminations. Weighs 44 grams. Ex. Charles Hansen Collection.
