Description from the seller
Visual presentation
A stunning raw green elbaite tourmaline crystal, featuring a clear prismatic structure. The green color is fully revealed when light passes through the stone, providing a beautiful contrast between dark and light hues.
Technical specifications
Weight: 7.59 carats
Dimensions: 12 × 8.1 × 8.1 mm
Origin: Stak Nala, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan
Variety: Green Elbaïte
Shape: Raw prismatic crystal
Color: Intense green manifesting in translucency
Quality: Very beautiful transparency with a well-preserved natural structure
Rarity and interest
The luminous revelation of the green color under lighting is typical of the most beautiful specimens of Stak Nala.
Originating from a mythical and limited deposit, which makes these crystals increasingly difficult to obtain.
Weighing over 7 carats, ideal for discerning collectors.
Historical and geological context
Stak Nala tourmalines have been world-renowned since their discovery in the 1980s for their exceptional quality and unique bi- or tri-color hues.
Each crystal reflects a rare combination of geological conditions, which gives these stones their characteristic play of colors.
Today, extractions are very limited, reinforcing the value and desirability of each example.
Conclusion
A 7.59 carat, vibrant and contrasting green elbaite tourmaline that perfectly illustrates the beauty and rarity of Stak Nala stones.
