An aesthetic and striking polychrome tourmaline crystal cluster from recent finds at the Pederneira Mine of Brazil. This stunning piece looks like a stylized "7." The gemmy and lustrous crystals are mostly green, but the "arm" crystal has a gorgeous, teal-blue, indicolite zone. Both crystals have a core of light cranberry-red. The tourmalines are beautifully complimented by a sprinkling of gemmy, pink lepidolite crystals. The distinctive, spiky termination is comprised of many, parallel-growth crystals. This complete-all-around super piece is nearly pristine.
