AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Sample: Schorl Tourmaline and Quartz from Malawi

• Sample description: An extraordinary and aesthetic grouping dominated by large and imposing prismatic crystals of black tourmaline (schorl), which display lustrous faces, sharp terminations and well-defined vertical striations. To embellish the specimen is a dense associated growth of smoked quartz crystals, clear and well terminated, partially interpenetrated by thin, gleaming needles of lesser schorl that create a high-level structural contrast for collectors.

• Brief locality description: Monte Malosa, located in Zomba District, a world-renowned alkaline pegmatite complex famous among museums and international collectors for its exceptional aesthetic samples of tourmaline, feldspars and egirine.

• Crystal therapy: This powerful mineral combination is regarded as one of the best protective shields available; schorl grounds energy deeply and repels negative frequencies, while smoked quartz helps dissolve fear, relieve depression, and channel strong emotional stability toward the root chakra.

• Bases not included in the sale.

• No shipping outside the EU.
