This is an old tourmalilne cluster from the Pederneira Mine very similar to one we had at auction a few weeks back from the Ruggiero Collection, and likely from the same find. It consists of green crystals up to over 9 cm in length (!), sprinkled with lavender lepidolites. Some of the tourmalines are terminated, and others aren't, depending on whether they contacted the side of the pocket or not. This is a large, rich and very impressive old Pederneira piece! 13.9 x 10.4 x 7.1cm
