This piece brings together a beautifully colored seafoam tourmaline with two sharply formed smoky quartz crystals, all resting on a soft bed of white cleavelandite. The tourmaline stands tall with a calm, refreshing tone that plays gently against the warm, glassy look of the quartz. The cleavelandite adds a light, airy touch that ties the whole composition together. The specimen has a single repair, done cleanly and with great care, which blends naturally into the crystal without affecting the overall presence. The harmony of color, form, and balance gives this Afghan specimen a quietly elegant character that instantly draws the eye.
