Tourmaline, Nigeria
About the Item
Tourmaline, Ofiki, Oyo State, Nigeria
6.3 cm tall x 1.9 cm diameter
Ofiki is well known for producing deep colored tourmalines. Most of the tourmalines they find are dull, rounded, and waterworn crystals, which are best used by jewelers as cutting rough. We rarely see superb sharp crystals of collector quality, such as this one, from this locality.
