Description from the seller

An outstanding lot of six natural Rubellite Tourmaline crystals from the famous Malkhan Pegmatite Field, Russia, well known among collectors for producing some of the world’s finest raspberry-red tourmaline.

These crystals display vivid deep pink to red coloration, attractive transparency, and natural prismatic terminations with characteristic striations. Several pieces include minor albite or quartz matrix, highlighting their authentic pegmatitic origin.

Each specimen is naturally formed, unheated and untreated, showing variations in shape and luster that make this lot both scientifically interesting and visually striking.
A perfect selection for collectors, decorators, or museum displays seeking genuine Russian pegmatite specimens of Rubellite quality.

Seller's Story

I specialize in natural gemstones, crystals, and mineral specimens, carefully sourced from trusted locations around the world — including Afghanistan, Pakistan, Brazil, Madagascar, and Africa. Many of my finest pieces come directly from my family’s private mine in Afghanistan, originally established by my father. This legacy allows me to access unique and high-quality mineral formations that are rarely found on the market. My collection features authentic Kunzite, Tourmaline, Lapis Lazuli, Aquamarine, Spessartine, Peridot, and other rare minerals, each selected with geological expertise and passion. As an active participant in international gem and mineral exhibitions across Europe, America, Japan, and China, I focus on offering collectors and enthusiasts only genuine and ethically sourced natural specimens. Every listing is prepared with transparency, accuracy, and professional care to ensure the highest standard of authenticity and buyer satisfaction.
