Item Description
This is a wonderful classic Brazilian Kunzite specimen showing delightful hydrothermal etching on all sides. The piece is essentially a floater, as I cannot find any point of attachment. It has a lovely pale lilac-pink color and is nearly 100% gem quality, although it is difficult to illustrate this in the photos. Before Afghanistan, these specimens stood as some of the finest for this variety of Spodumene extant.
