Description

This is a very fine tourmaline cluster from Brazil, composed of two intergrown main crystals showing strong and vibrant multicolor zoning. The crystals display an impressive range of colors, transitioning from reddish tones through yellowish and green to intense green, turquoise, and deep blue toward the upper sections. The vertical striations are well defined, and both crystals are well terminated with clean and sharp terminations. The pronounced color zoning and the natural intergrowth of the two main prisms give the specimen excellent visual impact and make it a highly attractive example of Brazilian tourmaline.
