Benitoite (fluorescent) & Joaquinite on Natrolite

Item Description

Three, textbook, mostly gemmy, beautiful sapphire-blue benitoite crystals are elegantly set on the natrolite-covered serpentine matrix. The large crystal is 1.3 cm. Two 1 mm orange-brown crystals of the very rare Ce-silicate joaquinite (Type Locality) are a classic accent. This is an adorable and aesthetic combination plate for the locale. Bright blue-white benitoite fluorescence.
