Tourmaline Var. Rubellite (1978 Pocket)
This is a FLOATER. complete all around. It has no damage of any note beyond the most miniscule ding. It is from the famous 1978 pocket, and these still remain the most famous and desired tourmalines among collectors. Clusters are rarified - and most of the specimens I have seen are either singles or singles in matrix of lepidolite. This piece has a stunning, total clarity and gemminess to it that the pocket is famed for having, yet most specimens actually do not have in full quality. From a private collection, this was stashed for about 30 years down in Brazil until only recently. Joe Budd photos
