Item Description

An impressive long prismatic, strongly skewed trigonal dravite crystal with striking multiple prism faces from this well-known Australian locale. The lustrous black crystal is highlighted by the dense layering on most of the prism faces and the areas of contrasting oxides. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only modest bruising and a broken side car crystal. Long prismatic crystals of this form and color are not that common. A fascinating and unusual 360-degree crystal with every turn presenting a different visusal aspect.
