Item Description

An adorable and RARE combination thumbnail from this famed locale. Classic, blocky, orthorhombic, lustrous, translucent, yellowish-green leucophanite crystals, to 4 mm, are dramatically clustered on the very sculptural matrix of iridescent astrophyllite plates accented with mounds of sparkly, tiny brown aegirine needles. Such combinations are EXTREMELY RARE from the Poudrette Quarry and this is a superb example from the Charlie Key Collection.
