Description
This beautiful pink tourmaline comes from the famed Himalaya Mine in Mesa Grande, California. It was faceted in an opposed bar cut by miner and gemstone artist Phil Osborn; the gem shows brilliant flashes of pink as its held in the hand. While the macro images here show some small internal inclusions, this view is similar to that with a 10x loupe. In the hand these inclusions are not visible–it’s eye clean. The gem weighs 3.25 carats and measures 10.83 x 6.51 x 5.10 mm.
