Description
A super gemmy and well formed, deep purple Elbaite crystal from well known Brazilian locale Cruzeiro Mine of São José da Safira in Minas Gerais. The Elbaite here is excellent terminated has a deep purple cap with a hint of green at the center. At the bottom we see a typically watermelon colouration with red core and greenish rim. A very good thumber with fine striation and luster and only minor imperfection but great aesthetic impact.
