Multicolor Tourmaline Crystal Lot – 12g Paprok Mine Afghanistan – Pink, Blue & Green Collector Specimens with Display

Product Description

A beautiful 12-gram collection of natural multicolor Tourmaline crystals from the famous Paprok Mine area of Nuristan, Afghanistan. This hand-selected lot features an impressive range of natural colors, including aqua blue, teal, blue-green, mint green, deep blue-green and a distinctive pale pink Tourmaline crystal.

The crystals display the classic elongated prismatic growth and pronounced vertical striations associated with fine Afghan Tourmaline. Several pieces show particularly attractive translucency and gemmy areas that become especially vivid when viewed under strong lighting.

One of the highlights of the collection is the larger pale pink crystal, which provides a striking contrast against the predominantly blue and green crystals. The variation in crystal size, color and formation makes the group especially attractive when presented together.

The entire 12-gram lot is sold together in the display case shown, creating a ready-to-display collection from one of Afghanistan's most celebrated Tourmaline localities. Paprok is internationally recognized among mineral collectors for producing exceptionally colorful elbaite Tourmaline crystals.
