“Mushroom” Elbaite Tourmaline, Calcite

Excellent cabinet-size specimen featuring numerous intense-pink, gemmy tourmaline “mushrooms” in calcite matrix from the famous Palelni mine in Myanmar. Exhibits the best color intensity you can ask for in this material, and highly 3-dimensional… displays great from all sides. This material has become VERY uncommon on the market in this quality, and in my opinion these are a “must-have” for the serious tourmaline collector. Mark Cross photo.
