Item Description

The beautiful blue Apatites from Bahia, Brazil are some of the most saturated examples of Apatite from any locality. The intense neon color of these gems is virtually unmatched, and they are not often seen on the market. This stone is a unique "Hexagon" cut gem with a rich radiant blue color, and if you look closely, you can see tiny acicular inclusions of Rutile floating inside. A very interesting and one-of-a-kind gem for any fan of worldwide Apatites, Brazilian gems or "inclusion" stones.
