{"product_id":"tourmaline-26","title":"TOURMALINE","description":"A double terminated, translucent, candy-pink Tourmaline crystal with minor Quartz and Lepidolite from the world-famous Himalaya mine at Mesa Grade, California, USA.  At 5.5 cm tall by 2.5 x 2.4 cm in section, this fine example is most probably Elbaite but is not labelled as such.  Elbaite is a specific species within the Tourmaline Group.  The prism has fine yet prominent striated faces giving a brushed silk lustre and is mainly light candy-pink containing zones of almost colourless and occasional creamy-white Tourmaline.  One terminated end is a complex mix of trigonal pyramids that bifurcate to coral-pink and rich-plum.  The opposite termination is glassy and highly lustrous and is capped by a subtle 1 mm deep pale lime-green band.  A small 5 mm crystal of fibrous cream Tourmaline sits at one edge of the termination.  A great and different Tourmaline from the Himalaya mine.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57781011808591,"sku":"CC18992","price":1036.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/3748\/2063\/files\/CC18992_42ea90b8-415d-4913-9b4c-d9adcb0da88a.jpg?v=1783975505","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.co.uk\/products\/tourmaline-26","provider":"Crystal Classics UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
