Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Elbaite
Locality: Jonas Mine, Conselheiro Pena, Doce valley, Minas Gerais, Southeast Region, Brazil (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: small cabinet, 9.2 x 8.7 x 6.4 cm
Tourmaline var. Rubellite on Cleavelandite
This beautiful matrix piece hosts gem-cranberry-red tourmalines to just over 3 cm , on geometric bladed cleavelandite matrix. One rarely sees Jonas tourmalines for sale today anyhow, and this overall aspect is unusual. It features 5 crystals of substantial display value, all poking out from and contrasting to the crystallized matrix. This is certainly one of the 2 or 3 most famous pockets of tourmaline ever found, and dates from a single discovery in 1978. Most collectors will never own a matrix piece - so few are available. The gem crystals on this one are really of high quality, and set off so starkly on the blades of snow white matrix. Comes with a base for custom display.
