A classic Himalaya tourmaline that is doubly-terminated, lustrous and translucent, this specimen exhibits a rich reddish pink color. As an added bonus there are a few doubly terminated, pink lepidolite crystals perched on the side of the elbaite crystal. The mass is 100 grams. This is absolutely classic, and it has ideal proportions as a display specimen! It comes with a custom lucite display base so that it can sit diagonally, thus showing off both terminations at once and filling more space as you see it. Ex Bill Larson collection (from when he worked the mine in the 1990s.)
