Wow, what a beautiful California classic, very aesthetic specimen :-)
I've seen a lot of these wonderful elbaites in the recent ExtraLAPIS issue about California, for me they are among the most desirable and beautiful elbaites at all (together with good specimens from Brazil, Pakistan and Afghanistan).
