SOLD
An unusual, castle-like growth of intermixed rubellite tourmaline and quartz, grown into each other. This is a Jonas Mine tourmaline from the classic 1978 find here, with the right color if not gemminess to it. It is not a typical Jonas at all. The top is terminated, etched into an elongated termination.
