A single, well-formed, terminated crystal of Dravite from the Type Locality at Dobrova pri Dravogradu, Dravograd, Slovenia. The prismatic crystal, which is mounted for display on a small acryllic base, is 20 mm in length, slightly translucent, and a deep brown colour. There is some damage at one edge of the prism at the base, and a few 'mouse bites' around the edges of the termination, but this is a rarely seen example of this type of Tourmaline from the Type Locality. Another tiny prismatic Dravite crystal sits as a 'side-car' on one side of the main prism. Great colour and form.
