A fine cathedral-shaped cluster of parallel growth olive-green tourmaline crystals from Malkhan, near Lake Baikal. This is a doubly terminated crystal. The pyramidal terminations are preferentially highlighted with pink and the broken and healed termination is coated with pink tourmaline. The specimen is translucent to partially gemmy, lustrous and all faces are lightly frosted. Complete-all-around and essentially pristine. Highly representative material from this locale. Weighs 210 grams.
