Elbaite - etched dark green tourmaline (Ref: 22.1-237)

Barra do Salinas Mining District, Coronel Murta, Minas Gerais, Brazil
53mm x 49mm x 34mm
A dark green lustrous Tourmaline crystal with geometric etching and complex faces. The green color is hard to see without strong lighting, but it does light up with backlight and glows an olive green to yellowish color. Without that lighting (not used in the photos) this looks almost black. At some angles this looks more like a Navegadora Spessartine than an Elbaite. Ex collection of Les Hitchings, obtained on a trip to Brazil in 1966.
