Sourced from the renowned pegmatite fields of Afghanistan, this 91ct specimen is a striking combination of three distinct minerals. The focal point is a well-formed Green Tourmaline crystal, showcasing a saturated forest-green hue and a vitreous, glass-like luster. The crystal displays characteristic vertical striations and is beautifully translucent when illuminated.
Adding significant aesthetic value, the tourmaline is accented by delicate, pearlescent flakes of lilac Lepidolite (a lithium-bearing mica) and is anchored to a crystalline Quartz matrix. The interplay between the deep green of the tourmaline, the soft lilac of the lepidolite, and the bright quartz creates a "museum-style" presentation that is 100% natural and untreated.
