Description/Interesting Notes: A classic "blue cap" tourmaline from this famed Brazilian locale!!! This specimen consists of a sharp, complete, single crystal of tourmaline that exhibits an intense blue "cap" at the termination followed by a zone of pale yellowish color and a pink core toward the base - the characteristic ..."Sapo" color presentation!!! The crystal exhibits sharp, glassy faces and translucent to gemmy clarity!!! Upon close inspection one can see that this crystal appears to be two intimately intergrown crystals in parallel association!!! This specimen is complete, undamaged, and displays gorgeously in person!!! Classic material!!! These specimens continue to get more and more difficult to obtain - it is easy to understand why they are so highly sought after and why collectors seldom part with them!!!The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
