This substantial 754ct specimen is an extraordinary example of "inclusion mineralogy." The host is a large, well-formed Quartz crystal with exceptional transparency, acting as a crystal-clear window into its internal world. Suspended within the quartz are multiple, slender needles of Green Tourmaline, creating a stunning visual effect often referred to as "Tourmalinated Quartz."
The tourmaline crystals display a rich, verdant green hue that contrasts beautifully against the water-clear quartz. At 86mm in length, this is a significant cabinet-sized piece that showcases the complex growth history of Afghan gem pockets. The quartz features sharp prism faces and a high-vitreous luster, ensuring that every internal detail of the green tourmaline "forest" is visible to the naked eye. This is a 100% natural, untreated specimen, perfect for collectors who specialize in inclusions or high-impact Himalayan minerals.
