Blue capped Dravite crystal from an unusual, one time find in 2017. This is the largest I've ever had, and the largest I ever recall seening from this find. The crystal consists of a dark base followed by a translucent to transparent white zone, then a deep blue cap. The termination (blue and white zones) is partially etched but undamaged, though there is some chipping along the dark prism faces. Rare coloration for Dravite and an incredible Tourmaline in general. This was listed at $950 on my website.
