Description:A juicy and fine example of bi-colored indicolite from Afghanistan. The lustrous crystal is capped by a thick, 1.0 cm, gorgeous, beautiful blue gem zone above the opaque, super-dark purple body. The attached bladed cleavelanite cluster is a stark contrast. Complete all-around, with only a very trivial bit of termination edgewear - certainly not detracting. This is an excellent example of the species and locale. And for its size, it is simply a superlative toenail/small miniature Valued at $800.
