Tourmaline with Quartz Combined Specimen – Paprok

World-Class Bicolor Tourmaline from Paprok

Add an absolute showcase piece to your fine mineral collection with this pristine Tourmaline-with-Quartz combined specimen. Discovered in the high-altitude pegmatite fields of Paprok, Nuristan Province, Afghanistan, this specimen represents the highest tier of aesthetic mineral aesthetics.

The focal point is an incredible, thick prismatic Tourmaline crystal exhibiting world-class luster and deep, rich coloration. The crystal transitions flawlessly along its vertical C-axis, shifting from a rich bluish-green base to a vibrant, icy-mint-green termination cap. Its parallel striations beautifully capture and play with light, showing off its gemmy, transparent interior.

Aesthetic Matrix Harmony & Provenance

What truly elevates this piece is its damage-free nature and pristine presentation. The primary Tourmaline crystal sits dramatically nested between beautifully formed, translucent-to-white Quartz crystals. The geometric, angular faces of the Quartz act as a striking, natural pedestal that brings out the intense, deep saturation of the tourmaline gemstone.

With dimensions of 7 x 9 x 3 cm and a balanced weight of 145 grams, this cabinet specimen offers exceptional display angles without needing a custom stand. Paprok is globally renowned for producing fine tourmalines, but an unbroken, naturally aggregated combination of this aesthetic caliber is a highly secure investment for serious collectors and luxury interior curators alike.
