Description

This stunning specimen features a vibrant Rubellite Reddish Pink Tourmaline crystal nestled alongside delicate sheets of Albite, originating from the mineral-rich regions of Afghanistan. The Rubellite crystal displays a vivid, saturated pink to reddish-pink hue, characteristic of high-quality tourmaline, with excellent luster and natural striations that highlight its prismatic form. Complementing the bold tourmaline is the Albite, a variety of albite feldspar, presenting in shimmering, pearly-white, bladed formations that create a striking contrast against the vibrant tourmaline. Together, these minerals form a captivating and harmonious display of color and texture, making this piece not only a geological marvel but also a prized addition for collectors and enthusiasts of fine mineral specimens.
