Tourmaline from Barra de Salinas, Brazil. 21st Century.

Tourmaline can display the full spectrum of colors, and color combinations, deep pink to crimson red examples are rarest and highly prized. This amazing crystal has a ruby-red tone throughout and a hot pink termination that seems almost artificial. With a monolithic presence, exceptional color, and gemlike appeal, it is clearly one of the most important examples ever recovered from Brazil.
