Wendy & Frank Melanson Collection Wendy and Frank Melanson by virtue of Frank’s frequent trips to Brazil accumulated a wonderful and varied suite of thumbnail tourmaline crystals.

This has wonderful sharp zoning from a pink “rubellite” base to a green termination. The shorter crystal has a small chip at the termination, but the unique zoning compensates somewhat for the damage.
