Soft cover. Condizione: As New. 1st Edition. As new, great condition. Rare in the ancient world. Its unique properties set it apart from other hard, red gemstones, generically known as "ruby" or "carbuncle." That distinction was lost during the Dark Ages but revived in the Enlightenment, as science undertook its quest to understand the nature of things. For two and a half centuries rubellite has had a part of that great unraveling. Today "rubellite" refers to the pink to red variety of tourmaline, a large group of borosilicates. Coveted most for its endless combinations of colors, just a handful of species - elbaite, liddicoatite, rossmanite - form rubellite, which is found as large, gemmy, euthedral crystals in pegmatites across the globe.
