A pristine, gemmy and lustrous bi-colored tourmaline from Jos, Nigeria - a unique find of 2-3 years ago. The base is a beautiful cognac-color and grades up to dark grass-green at the pyramidal termination. The green is caused by chrome ions. The termination faces are lustrous to matte-finished. 2.3 x 1.9 x 1.5 cm
