Very cean with just one tiny nick on the front. The crystal is also double terminated with only a small area of contact on the backside where it was detached from the matrix. Rich translucent green coloration. It's rare to find these with matrix especially with such a great display.

I typically have to reject most Chrome Tourmalines for being too dark - this one however is uncommon for its lighter color and high transparency. It's complete all around with great luster, undamaged, and with a yellow/green grading up to a 'chrome' green at the termination. I've only seen a few with this style over the years.
