Paraiba Tourmaline Crystal in Natural Matrix – Collector Specimen

A striking Paraiba-type tourmaline crystal partially embedded in its natural matrix.

The specimen features a well-developed vivid blue crystal with visible internal structure and natural tonal depth, giving the piece a strong visual presence.

The crystal is attractively exposed while remaining anchored in its natural matrix, preserving its original formation and enhancing its sculptural character.

This specimen is valued for its saturated blue colour, clarity within the crystal, and classic Paraiba-type appearance.

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.
