A fine, gemmy and lustrous polychrome tourmaline from the Otjua pegmatites of Namibia. The doubly terminated, green tourmaline implanted in the termination is a fine accent. The main body grades downward from green to teal blue and the lower core is rose-red. Weighs 15 grams. Material like this probably dates to the 1970s or 80s.
