A CLASSIC, OLD-TIME bi-axial cluster of lustrous, partially gemmy, green tourmaline crystals from the famous Golconda Mine. The upright crystal has a very showy, spray-like termination and is pristine, all-around. The contact on the horizontal crystals reveals the cranberry core, making these watermelon tourmalines. An aesthetic and beautiful Golconda tourmaline.
