DESCRIPTION:
This impressive natural tourmaline specimen, weighing 22.77 grams, hails from the rich mineral deposits of Kunar, Afghanistan, a region known for producing world-class tourmalines. Measuring 7.7 x 2.2 x 2.2 cm, this specimen showcases the exceptional size and distinctive crystal structure that make tourmalines from this area highly sought after by collectors and gem enthusiasts.
With no treatment or enhancement, this tourmaline is entirely natural, maintaining its original form as found in nature. The crystal features sharp, well-defined edges and smooth surfaces, with a striking vertical orientation that highlights its robust, columnar structure.
