Sold as is, this black tourmaline semi polished point still has plenty going for it, starting with the white stripes running through the black stone.
The reason it is sold as is: there is a large chip on the tip, which you can see in the photos, so there are no surprises when it arrives. The rest of the point is semi polished, which leaves some natural texture while bringing out the contrast between the black tourmaline and its white streaks. It is a chunky piece, about 4 inches deep, so it sits solidly on a desk, by an entryway or on a shelf. If you care more about the black and white pattern than a crisp tip, this is an easy way to add a sizeable black tourmaline to your space. It also makes a thoughtful October birthday gift. This is the exact point shown.
The point is about 4.5 by 3 by 4 inches. Look at the ruler photo for scale.
