Item Description

Intergrown parallel-growth clusters of very glassy, transparent to translucent, classic clove-brown axinite blades form a very sculptural specimen and are aesthetically set on the matrix. RARE and pristine material from this 1990s find, as most specimens were coated with chlorite. Outstanding material from the Herb Obodda Collection # 1858 and valued by Herb at $1200, over 7 years ago. It is worth more today.
