Blue Cap Indicolite Tourmaline

This one is special. Featuring a dense emerald-green core that transitions upward into a teal-blue / near-indicolite cap. That’s caused by trace element variation during growth — mostly iron and possibly lithium concentration shifts.

Key features:

Glass-clear internal clarity in some zones.

Color zoning is dramatic, especially backlit.

Terminated naturally with minor etch texture.

Attractive length-to-width ratio — very aesthetically proportioned.
