S6434 - Vesuvianite - $400
Susa Valley, Piemonte, Italy
Overall Size: 2.3 x 1.2 cm
|
|
|
|
Beautiful mix of brown, yellow and orange in this gem crystal exhibiting strong highlights that are quite evident
when rotated in hand, pristine termination as well as glassy see through faces too. I'm sure the vesuvianite could
be chopped up given the facet rough inside. No damage.

Very aesthetic crystal shape! Great termination! This unique pastel pink Apatite-(CaF) measures 4.2 cm in
length and sits frozen in rehealed albite with adjacent white blades of cleavelandite setting off or adding
sharp contrast. It is internally gemmy and highly glassy except the steeply terminated side face.
Excellent for from Brazil, no damage.

Rutherford Deposit, Magnet Cove, Arkansas
Overall Size: 3.1 x 2.5 cm

Four very sharp opaque dark black brookites sit on the corners of a rusty brown pyrite. A balancing act
by two species that go well together. Cannot remember seeing one as unique or exposed. Excellent!

You know it is a good thumbnail when pyrite is rarer than emerald from the famous mines of Colombia.
