A striking, gemmy and lustrous polychrome tourmaline from Paprok, Afghanistan. Ex Steve Smale Collection. The vibrant pink body is beautifully highlighted by the green zone within the water-clear area, just below the termination. The termination has an unusual, almost bronze-like color to it. The partial collar of cleavelandite at the base is a nice accent. 12 grams.
