This Elbaite has what I sometimes call a "peacock". An unusually bright or quirky aesthetic feature, typically an extremely contrasted color. In this instance it is the extremely bright cap. It is almost surreal in contrast to the tone and saturation of the rest of the tourmaline, which is still delightfully colorful, showing a deep red core around a classic saturated green.
