Stunning and unusual curved Tourmaline var. Elbaite from Aracuai, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The crystal is repeatedly bended by tectonic movements as it grew in the pocket. The Elbaite is gem with pleasing green color. The crystal faces are very reflective and lustrous with good striation. White Albite crystals grow above. In very good condition – the tip of the crystal is not complete. On acrylic base.

Rare bent Tourmaline with dramatic display.
