QUARTZ22

This beautiful piece has a spray of gemmy watermellon Tourmaline, and translucent purple/pink Lepidolite integrating a transparent Quartz crystal. It has so many angles to view its unique qualities, it really is a conversation piece. When you look into the Quartz point, you can see the "rays," of pinkish lepidolite extending into the crystal, also there is a gem green Tourmaline that terminates inside the Quartz. Green and Watermellon Tourmaline crystals grow all over the Quartz, with The largest tourmaline  (6.7 cm long (2.75 inches) crystallizing at a 90 degree angle to the Quartz ad terminating without damage. Its in great condition overall with only one of the smallest tourmalines with a glassy (broken) end. It comes on a custom Lucite base. Ex. Steve Dowell collection.
