Paraiba Tourmaline Crystal in Natural Matrix – Collector Specimen
This enchanting specimen is composed almost entirely of tourmaline, with only a very small amount of albite present. A vivid neon-blue tourmaline crystal partially overgrows a purple crystal beneath it, creating an unusual and highly attractive natural composition.
The specimen is especially appreciated for its intense neon-blue colour, elegant crystal arrangement, and striking visual contrast.
This piece comes from the same collection as certified Paraiba tourmalines attributed to the classic São José da Batalha mining area. Based on its visual characteristics and provenance, it is considered classic Paraiba-type material.
Photos are taken in daylight, without filters or effects applied.
