I was told that this was found circa 1920, though there is no way to prove it now. However, it IS a classic oldstyle tourmaline from an important East Coast locale, showing a famous "bent" style that was well-documented here. This bending reflects natural break-and-reheal cycles within the pocket as the crystal grew. Seldom do you see the effect so pronounced!
