The rubellite, a vivid pink to deep raspberry red variety of tourmaline, rises with impressive clarity and luster, showcasing its natural hexagonal structure and vibrant internal glow when held to the light. Contrasting beautifully against the silvery-purple tones of the lepidolite, a lithium-rich mica mineral, the crystal appears almost sculptural highlighting the harmonious interplay between form and color. This rare and visually captivating piece is not only a testament to the geological richness of Afghanistan but also a prized find for collectors and enthusiasts of fine mineral specimens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eProduct Information:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable width=\"445\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 49.075px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 95.925px; height: 49.075px;\"\u003eSpecimen Name\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 331.275px; height: 49.075px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTourmaline Crystal on Lepidolite\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 36px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 95.925px; height: 36px;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 331.275px; height: 36px;\"\u003e44 grams\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 37px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 95.925px; height: 37px;\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 331.275px; height: 37px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: \" google sans text color: background-color: transparent font-weight: font-style: normal font-variant: text-decoration: none vertical-align: baseline white-space: pre-wrap\u003eH: 6.2 x W: 4.5 x D: 1.7 cm \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 38px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 95.925px; height: 38px;\"\u003eTreatment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 331.275px; height: 38px;\"\u003eNone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 48px;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 95.925px; height: 48px;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 331.275px; height: 48px;\"\u003ePaprok Mine, Nuristan Province, Afghanistan \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eTourmaline:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.gandharagems.com\/product-category\/specimens-and-crystals\/tourmaline\/\"\u003eTourmaline\u003c\/a\u003e is an extremely popular gemstone; the name Tourmaline is derived from Turamali, which is thought to mean 'stone with mixed colors.' \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.gandharagems.com\/product-category\/specimens-and-crystals\/\"\u003eColor is king\u003c\/a\u003e for tourmaline, which is found in more shades and hues than any other gem.
