KILLING TIME WITH SOME WASHINGTON D.C. POCKET MAGIC!

KILLING TIME WITH SOME WASHINGTON D.C. POCKET MAGIC!

Waiting around in the lounge… and what better way to pass the time than pulling out a NEXT LEVEL Brazilian Tourmaline and catching some beautiful natural light!

This 23.71 gram Elbaite Tourmaline from the legendary Washington D.C. Pocket at the Cruzeiro Mine in Minas Gerais, Brazil is an absolute STUNNER!

That COLOR!!!

An insanely saturated raspberry-red termination transitions into gorgeous champagne, smoky olive-green, and earthy tones throughout the crystal. The natural color zoning is ridiculous!

Add that incredible glassy luster, beautiful vertical striations, gemmy transparency, and sharply formed termination… and you’ve got one serious Brazilian heater!

There’s something special about holding a crystal from such a celebrated pocket. The history, the rarity, the colors, and the incredible formations are exactly why I LOVE this hobby.

And sometimes all you need is a little downtime, a window, and one of Mother Earth’s masterpieces to remind you why the hunt never gets old!
