A striking, old-time tourmaline from the Santa Rosa Mine of Brazil. The highly lustrous, translucent, rich green, parallel-growth tourmaline crystals have an incredible number of turreted, castle-like terminations on both sides. Material of this quality probably dates to the 1960s or 1970s. Ex. Daniel Trinchillo Sr. Collection.
