Description/Interesting Notes:
A gorgeous, old time classic chrysoberyl crystal from Maine!!! This specimen hosts a large 2.3cm chrysoberyl crystal twin on matrix in association with
a single dark red crystal of spessartine garnet!!! So often these specimens are damaged or repaired - however, this
crystal is complete, pristine, undamaged, and unrepaired!!! The crystal has sharp, brilliantly lustrous faces and exhibits sharp characteristic twinning as well!!!
The crystal has classic golden color with gemmy clarity (if viewed on edge just right, one can see some slight bluish iridescence as
well)!!! The pics simply do not capture just how lively and impressive this classic beauty is!!! This specimen came from the collection of Doris Chambers, who had
collected extensively in Maine!!! Simply a stunning Maine chrysoberyl!!!
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 MAY 20th!!!
