Exquisite! How often do you find a tourmaline this aesthetic? Perfect "V" shaped flawless rich deep green prisms spray out
from a glassy colorless doubly terminated quartz of 2.2 cm in length, quality of qtz is first-rate, sharp edges and internally
gemmy throughout. It is almost like a dream piece in terms of balance or arranged crystals, I am sometimes told by collectors:
"I would buy it if the crystal was positioned this way," well if I have to hear it about this piece, I give up. The elbaite/qtz combo is
from old Cruzeiro production, well over 35 years ago, a must see for the gem crystal collector. Top level collectible for the
advanced connoisseur.
