Look at the amazing COLOR of this Namibian tourmaline crystal, from the collection of Willy Israel! It features an amazing blend of teal and green tones under good light. The crystal is complete all around, and has fine luster. It has a complete termination of complex form (though with a rough surface, which is common from this locality). Weighs 32 grams. Blue tourmaline of this quality from the locality is extremely uncommon and this is a good piece.
