Aside from the Chromium induced greens, this is probably the most attractive bodycolor we have ever seen in Enstatite. And, as a one-off, it is certainly more unusual. The tone is remarkably light and the stone looks more like a Dravite Tourmaline, that would be one of the first guesses on a visual ID. This is an old collection stone and has a touch of roughness around the girdle - likely just as it was cut as the material is difficult. Still, we thought it a rare example and there is nothing distracting. Really unusual and beautiful.
