This gemmy bi-color Tourmaline really "glows." It has the noteworthy greenish lower third, and a rich pink 2/3. It has a typicaly flat termination and very gemmy purple Lepidolite crystals sprinkled on it. It's in very good condition, there is a spot where Lepidolite formed on the crystal and later fell off (probably in the pocket). There are two micro chips on the edge of the termination (pictured), which is normal.  

It weighs 50 grams.
