Tourmaline on Lepidolite Nigeria This is an impactful offering of stark black Schorl Tourmaline on a "cloud" of lavender Lepidolite. The combination is striking. The Tourmaline crystals are stout, well-formed and have nice terminations, while the Lepidolite crystals are soft, lustrous sheets. Both are sprinkled with a nice spattering of white Albite. Overall, the piece is in good condition with only a couple of nicks on some of the crystal edges. Overall Measurements: 3.63 x 3.48 x 2.47 inches (9.22 x 8.85 x 6.27 cm) Provenance: Central Coast Collection [Scale: 1 inch, with mark at 1 cm]
