This is a colorful and classic 1990s style Paprok bi-color Tourmaline style. It is a limpid, glassy and gemmy, two-tone Elbaite Tourmaline crystal with a beautiful grass green body with a rich pink termination and slightly striated prism faces. This crystal is pleochroic and exhibits different colors in different orientation as in front of a laptop screen so the bright green goes to olive green and the cap is more of a purple color. From the extensive tourmaline suite of Steve Smale. Color and perfection make this crystal special in the size class worthy of the Smale collection. The mass of this beauty is 28 grams.
