About the Item
Tourmaline is celebrated not only for its vitreous beauty, but also for its unparalleled spectrum of colors and color combinations, earning its place among the most vibrant gemstones on Earth. What sets tourmaline apart is its ability to display multiple colors within a single crystal, a highly sought-after characteristic. This is a slice of the subvariety, liddicoatite, known for its astonishingly kaleidoscopic interior and its propensity for unique growth patterns. Expert cutting and polishing of this crystal cross-section has revealed a mesmerizing tapestry of vivid colors, with a prominent, deeply saturated core of rich cranberry color, enveloped by a vibrant pink band. This captivating core is further accentuated by slender alternating bands of pink and colorless zones, which then become thin outer zones of chartreuse and olive. The precision of these color zones is truly remarkable. When lit, the piece resembles a glowing window of stained glass. Vivid and attractive, this would make a beautiful addition to any space.
This piece comes with a bespoke stand ready for display.
