Most crystals of tourmaline from this locality have the "mushroom form" we so often see from Burma. This one, however, is a real crystal with normal form! It has juicy bubblegum-pink color. And, to cap it off (no pun intended), its a bluecap. Thin blue cap, to be sure, but its there nonetheless. This is the ONLY tourmaline of such style I have seen from Mogok. Its a total aberration. It came out about 4 years ago and has long been in the private Burma collection of the dealer who took it out.
