These are just two cute, matching tourmalines of different colors from this old classic Connecticut tourmaline location in an old quarry, now covered by development. The size given above is for the pink crystal. The green elbaite is 1.1 x 0.8 x 0.4 cm and both are terminated. This was part of the significant and large East Coast suite of both Ernie Schlichter and the Shields Flynn collection.
