Afghanistan is quite capable of producing some of the world's finest, most intensely colored Tourmalines. Though these are often overshadowing by cuprian stones from Mozambique, the bright sea-green colors of these Afghani stones is quite unique. This is an exceptional example, of larger size and very intense color. The checkerboard top does a fine job of hiding a few slight veils and the stone remains particularly bright. Beautiful US cutting - and that great color! As the price for this rough goes up exponentially with size, this is a larger size than we are typically able to offer.
