Gemmy, terminated single crystal with medium green color and a deep emerald green at the termination. Chrome Tourmaline is a vanadian rich uvite/dravite
and the vast majority are so dark you cannot see light through them. This one is exceptional in that light readily passes through the crystal.
Complete all around and undamaged though with an indentation from another crystal on the termination.
