Description

We are delighted to present this striking deep leaf-green tourmaline crystal from the famed Jabba Mine in Afghanistan—a stunning example of nature’s precision and beauty. This single crystal displays an impressively rich, open green coloration with remarkable transparency throughout its body, giving it a luminous, almost glowing appearance under light. The pristine vertical striations add texture and brilliance, while the sharp, well-formed termination enhances its elegant and symmetrical structure.

Measuring 3.8 cm in height and weighing just 9 grams, the crystal offers outstanding gem clarity, making it highly desirable not only for its aesthetic value but also for its potential as cutting-grade material. Despite that, the crystal’s natural form is so graceful and sculptural that it truly shines as a standalone collector’s specimen. A small secondary crystal at the base adds subtle character and dimension, further enhancing the visual appeal.

This miniature specimen is a refined and vibrant representation of what the Jabba Mine is celebrated for—top-tier green tourmalines with exceptional quality. Whether admired for its brilliant color, crystal perfection, or rarity, this piece captures the essence of fine Afghan mineralogy and would be a prized addition to any sophisticated collection.
