Power's Farm (Bower Powers farm; Ryland Crary farm), Pierrepont, St Lawrence Co., New York, USA

3.9 x 3.4 x 3.3 cm. This is an old Pierrepont tourmaline, and just a terrific one! The crystal is complete all around, viewable from 360 degrees, and has this unique non-prismatic form characteristic of this classic American locality. A cluster of quartz crystals forms a pretty contrasting matrix for the tourmaline to sit upon.

4.1 x 2.3 x 2.2 cm. A floater! This is a brilliant, high-quality doubly-terminated crystal, complete all around, and perched on quartz. This is as good as any I have seen for the size. Ex. American Museum of Natural History, Clarence Bement collection, donated in 1910.

This crystal, from a classic locality from the New York state, is formed by a short prism and the terminal flattened rhombohedron faces, which are well defined and show a good luster. Although it looks damaged in two places, one of them is a natural hole with crystal faces inside. The other one effectively is a ding.
