A translucent tourmaline of intense pink colour, carved as a peach with a chilong ﹙螭龍﹚ atop; the other tourmaline pendant of similar colour and translucency carved as a vase, symbolizing longevity and peace. (2) 

Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the two carved pink tourmalines are of medium deep, intense purple-pink colour, semi-transparent clarity. Under 10x loupe, both pendants have natural inclusions, with surface reaching fissures and pits, not noticeable to naked eyes. Condition: Auspicious carvings symbolize longevity and peace. Both in very good condition.
