A beautiful tourmaline crystal with albite from Afghanistan, displaying an elegant and well-balanced color transition. The upper portion shows fresh green tones with subtle hints of seafoam blue, gradually shifting into soft pink hues toward the base. This natural zoning creates a pleasing and visually harmonious gradient. The crystal features a well-defined multi-faced termination and exhibits fine vertical striations along its length. The upper section is of higher gem quality, with better clarity, while the lower portion appears slightly more translucent, adding depth and character to the specimen. The presence of white albite at the base provides a striking contrast, enhancing the overall aesthetics. A highly attractive piece that is even more impressive in person.
