Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic example of this rare new find!!! This specimen hosts three complex crystals of rare chromian lawsonite
from Greece!!! This material came from a single small find and was one of the more exciting new finds that we
encountered this year at the Tucson show!!! Lawsonite has been found in various drab hues as well as the better
known bluish crystals from California - however as you can see, not only to these specimens have outstanding and
unusual color, they are quite well formed for the species as well!!! The crystals have well defined faces and
marked luster as well!!! The crystals have a slight translucence which, combined with the chromium green color
gives them a slight resemblance to emeralds!!! There was a limited amount of this material collected by just
a single individual from a very remote location and these unusual specimens likely won't be around for long!!! Don't miss out!!! 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 FEBRUARY 24th!!!
**We have just returned from the annual Gem & Mineral Show in Tucson, Arizona!!! Be sure to stay tuned as we will be listing our exciting acquisitions throughout the next coming weeks!!!***
