This attractive specimen features a well-formed tourmaline crystal in association with lepidolite from Afghanistan. The tourmaline shows a rich, gemmy green color at the top and a subtle pinkish hue toward the bottom, with strong vertical definition and excellent surface luster, giving it a bold and elegant presence. The crystal naturally rises from a sculptural mass of pale lavender lepidolite, creating a striking color contrast and adding visual depth. Completely self-standing and well-balanced, the overall display is superb. Apart from minor damage at the bottom, the specimen is in excellent condition, making it a highly aesthetic and collectible piece with strong cabinet appeal.
