Gorgeous specimen of gem Tourmaline var. Elbaite decorated by black Quartz var. Smoky on a base of white Albite. The elongated Elbaite crystals are gem and transparent with very pastel and pleasant pink color to some light blue areas. They are strongly lustrous. The Quartz has intense black color and perfectly terminated crystals. They are highly lustrous and light reflective. That entire combo has unique style and display with strong contrast. Displays on both sides. In very good condition – some small damages.

Beautiful!
