DESCRIPTION
At first I need to mention, that there was NO backlight invloved to my photography - the crystal is so transperent that you can see this color without any light-effects. The faces show highest possible luster all around - in absolutely perfect condition! And then look at the colors - intense purple concentration below the end-point and lavender color at the lower part - which is an very unique color for Tourmaline.
