Description/Interesting Notes:
A unique, old time example of rutile from "Indochina"!!! This specimen was labelled as coming from the antiquated "Indochina" which includes a
rather large geographical area that contains several famous gem gravels and other alluvial deposits!!! This large rutile crystal exhibits a clearly
alluvial form but still retains significant definition!!! The most striking and unique feature of this specimen is that the different faces actually show a flash
of brilliant reflection at the right angle!!! These reflective areas are very sharply defined and geometric - to view the various flashing surfaces is quite
fascinating in person - as the specimen looks so smooth and "flat" yet it will suddenly flash a sharp reflective face!!! The specimen simply needs to be seen in person to be
fully appreciated!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
