Unusual cluster of forest-green chrrome tourmaline crystals in parallel growth, exhibit emerald green translucence at their terminations. The largest crystal measures nearly 2 cm across. The color is induced by chromium in this case. There is minor contact at the base of the specimen on the back side but that pales with the rarity and beauty of the chrome tourmaline. The mass is 23 grams. From the Burma collection of "Burma Bill" Larson, who has for decades brought out gems and then minerals as this region opened up to the trade in specimens.
