Description/Interesting Notes:
A huge example of this rare gem species from Brazil!!! This specimen consists of a huge, 2025 carat crystal of amblygonite!!! The
crystal exhibits complex twinning and has highly complex etched surfaces!!! In person, the overall crystal form is quite distinct and the
broad faces are lustrous!!! The crystal is in terrific condition and relatively complete all around!!! The faces are etched, not damaged as one
might infer from the pics!!! The crystal has golden color and marked clarity, with areas of significant gemminess!!! This specimen retains
an old handwritten label from Fred Pough as well!!! This is OLD Brazillian material!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be
fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY DECEMBER 23rd!!!
