A BEAUTIFUL, AESTHETIC and pristine Afghanistan specimen of a gemmy and lustrous, 4.8 cm polychrome tourmaline jauntily attached to the front of snow-white tipped colorless quartz crystals from Pech. The intense, indicolite blue termination grades downward to pastel-pink. This coloration is most unusual,, for the locality or anywhere, and thus its a rare specimen. It is free of repairs. 6.5 x 5.2 x 4.2 cm
