Green Tourmaline in Quartz

Lovely specimen pieces of green Tourmaline in a Quartz matrix.

These do have quite a decent amount of Tourmaline in!

Specimens from Skardu, Pakistan

A nice bright green Tourmaline on pretty clear-white Quartz; the only issue I have with this material is that the Quartz matrix isn't as stable as I'd like.

  • #1 - 74.6x34.4x19.5MM - half a Quartz point with at least two tourmaline crystals - one as an inclusion, one external. It is translucent to transparent and appears to be covered in a white clay or Quartz growth.
  • #2 - 19.6x12.4x10MM - a small fragment of a larger piece; I think this piece will make a nice micromount for someone as there's plenty going on.
  • #3 - 40.1x28.5x23.2MM - a reasonably sized piece with plenty of green Tourmaline over bright white Quartz. Translucent to opaque.
  • #4 - 112x74.8x61.3MM - a small cabinet piece about the size of my fist. While this is a nice piece, it contains some Mica which seems to be making the matrix quite fragile. Weighs just over half a kilo (545g).

 

Because these are natural pieces, the amount of inclusions will differ, as will the size, shape, and colour of the piece - please take a careful look at the photos. In some cases we sell pieces purely by size, these are smaller and it isn't hugely worth taking the time to photograph them individually.

Frequently asked questions and delivery information


How do we grade stones?

There is no overall universal grading system for the majority of our products. As such, the grades we use are internal only. They simply refer to higher and lower qualities, but they may be entirely different grades to other websites. C grade pieces are of lower quality than B grade, which is lower than A grade.

 

How does our ordering and delivery process work?

You place an order via the website. When it’s been picked and packed, your order will be marked as completed and dropped off at our local post office. We have an account with the post office called a “Drop and Go” account, which allows the post office staff to process our parcels when they have free time, rather than me queuing up and delaying everyone else.

I get tracking information etc online when this has been completed. I typically do not send tracking information to customers unless they request it – but if you’ve requested tracked postage, it has been sent tracked! If you have any worries or concerns about your parcel being delayed please feel free to get in touch and I’ll send the tracking info over! We also get delivery confirmations for parcels over 25MM thick by default.

 

How do international orders work?

After Brexit, with the UK leaving the European Union, certain things have changed with regards to international orders. European Union customers will now likely be liable to pay the same amount of import VAT as any other international customers. You will be responsible for any customs and import fees.

 

I’d like to return my order for a refund.

No problem at all – just get in touch and we’ll arrange it. You can read our full returns policy here.

 

What payment methods do you accept?

I can accept Paypal, Stripe, cheque, and direct bank transfers. Paypal and Stripe will both allow you to pay with credit and debit cards.
